Do we really fail in life?

I was watching a video of a Race in which around 5000 people were participating. They all were trying to get the first position, but one got to succeed. He was very excited and celebrating his wins because he won the race of 5000 people. It was his dream and finally, it comes true.

Do you know what other 4999 were doing? Yes, you are right, they were crying and frustrated because they loosed the chance to win the race. They too practiced for years and dreamed to get the first position but unfortunately, they couldn’t succeed. All of their supporters were shouting on them throwing cups, bottles etc. Coaches and other team members were consoling them, this was the whole scene.

Suddenly one looser started laughing, his laugh made people stunned because it was not expected from a loser. People thought that maybe he has gone mad, but his laughter was not coming from madness. It was glancing at his face that he has got something of very significance. 

Looking at the celebration of their defeat the winner to become surprised and his happiness disappeared suddenly. He was in the same confusion. But now he was not feeling to celebrate, his feeling of a winner was no more for him.

Slowly the laughter becomes viral other participants also started laughing. They all started celebrating the win of their competitor. All the people were amazed; they were not able to understand what happened to all the looser why they are laughing and celebrating their lose.

After prize distribution ceremony all media report came to that guy who first laughed and they asked, “Why you laughed at your defeat?”

He thought for a while, took a long breath and said, do you know there is nothing like as Win or Lose. This whole is a vicious race circle which is created by those who know nothing about life and nature. When I defeated and was crying, I realized that here nothing is like hierarchy all and everything is equal with each other on the same surface. The nature of any race is, one can win only when other will lose. 

So the winner is a winner because we lose but what is there for crying and you see that the winner became sad when he saw us celebrating his success and our Failure. You know why? Because his happiness depends on others he was not happy for his first position. He was happy because he defeated 4999 people. There is no meaning of such a win that disappears by the celebration of defeat. We were the one made him happy and sad.

When two people or team play, one has to lose for the victory of other. that’s why we call it a game.

Life too is a game, my friends. whatever you call as a failure in your life see it closely; it was a success for the other. But have you ever celebrated your failure and success of others? No, I don’t think so. We always say that we should celebrate failure but we never try to celebrate.

Try to understand the life. It is very simple; we make it complicated by participating in vicious cycle races. We never fail in life; we always learn how to live life. There is nothing like success or failure, we have given our definitions to these words.

Play with the life, as we used to do in our childhood. Participate in every race, don’t for the first position just for the fun and the celebration.

I think now you have the answer to this question Do We Really Fail in Life?
