Success & Happiness

'Success & Happiness' I think there is a direct co relation between these two
Might be not, as one doesn't necessarily lead to another
It could be just a myth !
Fashion.. One of the recent Bhandarkar movie.. thats where the above thought starts from, it existed before, but was mixed with various thoughts. Success is an amazing kick everyone is looking for, And when you are there, it really gives a kick, higher than anything else can give, But I feel the concern is even before u reach there, you look for another kick, and forget to enjoy the success for which you worked towards for years and might be longer. And thats what is something what make one's life miserable. And even if you have it, you might not have people around to share that very success, which you though would make you the hapiest ever. Are you really happy when you reach there ?
It was the same dream, ambition, for which you would have gave up thousands of important and not so important moments, And today when that dream has been materialized, you haven't got a sense of accomplishment, but you are looking at what you don't have, or whats the next step. It was the same dream, while chasing you left many people behind, for which you hurt many people, for which you were not your true self, but someone who can see just the dream, and the way to that dream, and disregarded everything else. And today, when you could materialize that dream, you are happy, But not as happy as u thought you would be, coz you never stopped on the way to check, if you are running too fast to notice any feelings, emotions, or even to listen to your inner voice.
At primary school, u feel u need to be in secondary school, n then college, n then Job, when u have a Job, u feel school was better. Time which u should have cherished, u were dreaming about something which u don't have, and the time which u have today, u regretting, I did not cherished the moments I had.. Is it so difficult to live in Today ! We all plan for future, and which is not wrong, but it shouldn't be too much to spoil Today... As all we have is TODAY !
So today Do something which u have never done before, and always wanted to do...!
There are many times in my life, when i thought/imagined, my life would be perfect if I get this, But of those many times, in spite of getting those things, till today my life is not perfect, And it cannot be perfect! Coz then its not LIFE, so why to leave your today, ur current happiness, ur loved ones, to go explore something in search of perfection ! Perfection, happiness, success why these are so relative terms, as they don't have existence on their own, So why everyone is running behind something which doesn't really exist, why can't we just aim to have a feeling of contentment with who / what we have in our TODAY !
World will be so much 'PERFECT' if everyone can live in TODAY !
