I am still half asleep after staying up and watching last night's game, which Man. Utd. won by luck. I would have perfered if both teams had lost, but that is not possible. However, although they are always lucky, Man. Utd. is a successful team, with the measure of success being their trophies and awards.
Today I was reading a document and the word success was mentioned in relation to a certain theme, which I know is really a failure, but that made me think of how humans seem to imagine success of things, while in reality they are failures, and how relative the word " success" is inturpetted in terms of our understanding of daily life.
Newspapers are full of success stories for people, companies, events, and more, but experts who know those people, or know the field or know the event, can really see through the cracks and determine that the information is bogus and without merit. Sometimes even an ordinary MAN can see the same (woman are blind, so out of equation).
We tend to enjoy positive words mentioned about our failures and enjoy praise for things we did not even contribute to. We see things as pink and orange, while they are black. We lie to ourselves, we betray our selves, we do it, because we cannot face the fact that we suck.
Yes, success is actually suck-cess, a global trend of turning negative things into positives. Famous suck-cessers include world leaders, leaders of industry, and even the common person (note women are included here). Civilizations have been built on suck-cessers spin of events, politics is a dirty game of suck-cessers, commerce is a dirty game of suck-cessers, what have we today that does not suck?
This century sucks. This decade sucks. People suck, we are all suck-cessers. Myself, you, that woman who refuses to draw my new icon (sucks big time) or that woman who keeps accusing me of flirting with any stone that moves (she is nice to me though, not like the icon lady). When will we get tired of sucking? When will we just say enough is enough, we have had it, you damn suck-cessers, get out and let us live our lives like angels?
Let us start today, I will shed away my suck-cessing tendencies, will you?
