Success, Victory, Suffering, Defeat, & Popularity




Success, victory, suffering, defeat; all these 4 have one thing in common. They are infectious. Once a person is infected by any of these, he will go out of balance. The biggest problem is that while going out of balance, he drags his neighbors also in to the same conundrum.

This world is full of sufferings. Even success and victory are one kind of mental diseases. Keep on getting success, one’s ego boosts like anything and at that moment, one defeat, will take him off the map. A person might have done so many good things to be there in the public eye and become more popular. If an allegation comes on him and his popularity goes for a toss, from that point onwards, one can see lot of changes in his personality. Used to get praises and honors from every corner of the world and when suddenly pushed to a corner, he starts doing all sorts of things to regain his position; including unpopular stuff!

Politicians, movie stars, popular social workers, etc, are examples. Follow them closely and you see the reality. Popularity can be compared with Ebola virus, which is contagious. May be Ebola can be controlled by antibiotics but not popularity. People die to become popular; such is the craze of its effect.
