If Success is Fame, Happiness is the Pride

You must have come across people reaching the heights of success? For some Success is Happiness but for others who struggle to find happiness in other forms, how many of them are happy really?

Maybe None.

Earning a successful life is what everyone strives for but even tougher is, Finding happiness in every single moment.

Happiness does not come along after achieving great things only.Imagine a person rich enough in family, friends, and income too. Even while having everything, he might end up being sad each day. Reasons can be innumerous..health conditions, misery to achieve more that has taken birth, or anything else.

One cannot always choose to be successful, but one can always choose to be happy in every condition.This reminds me about one of a story I heard,

Once a landlord, who had a large portion of land, he used to plant fruits on his land. There was a farmer, who used to work on some of the landlord's proportions. The landlord paid the farmer for all his work.

The farmer knew how to be satisfied and happy with what he earned, even when he knew the fact that this amount could only fetch him and his family a meal twice a day.He still was happy, after work he used to play with his daughter, spent time with family and the rest was devoted to working for the landlord.

The landlord one day asked one of his servants, how can this farmer with such low salary be happy every time? Does he have some other way of earning or anything else?The servant's answer shocked the landlord. "You think being successful, having a large amount of land, lots of money is what gives happiness!If you take Success as medicine to gain results as Happiness, you are wrong;

If Success can earn your food, can it terminate your starvation?

If Success can earn you a bed, can it earn you sleep?

If Success can earn you medicine, can it give you proper health?

Nothing in life is valuable until you are happy, not even the success, but happiness can do wonders when you think of it.Many people fail to understand that

"If success is fame, happiness is the pride;If success is medicine, happiness is just an effect"

Not Success alone is complete, but Happiness is everything.Strive for Happiness, and see how miracles happen then. Be grateful of the things in your life and seek Happiness in these little things.
