Success?

Success they say, is the way you perceive it to be… But I still don’t get the hang of it!? Cuz there are scores of times when I feel successful…

When somebody who once looked down upon me… calls me for help,
When I go to my favorite store to shop without a second thought,
I feel successful.

When I come home and lay that cheque into my mum’s palm,
When my dad points out to me and says “That’s my daughter!”
Yeah, I feel successful.

When the one I adore tells me how much he’s proud of me…
When my friends tell me how much they love me…
I feel successful.

So that’s my perception, I don’t know how far I’m from success for the world,
But in my opinion, I’ve triumphed! Cuz the more you run after success, the farther it seems, the instant you believe you’ve got it, trust me it’ll sustain!
