AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO IS STILL CONFUSED

I have heard a lot of people insisting me to follow my dream rather than a girl. They say when the former comes true, the latter will eventually happen. Are they trying to imply that girls are the ones who are supposed to follow successful guys and not success itself?

In every motivational speech I get to hear, it almost always revolves around the theme that "Failure is the stepping stone to success." And the most common epitome is the victory of the King Mohammed Ghajini who lost 17 attacks before his first ever glorious victory. Is this really true? Can it be even possible? But, we haven't heard the whole story.  Or at least have never been told. Truth is that he never was defeated. In every single attack, he looted the opponent's precious gold and temple artifacts. That was victory according to him. People misunderstood his primary reason for the attacks and assumed that he had lost, which in reality wasn't his side of the story.

People work hard and are always willing to do anything for their future generation's happiness and prosperity by destroying the necessities for the existence of human beings.

In every religion and civilization, people who stab at the back are despised. But, the one who stabs at the blindspot are being celebrated as heros. Aren't they all the same? Is 'back' not a blindspot? Or is it  rule of the weak that is being followed?

Without oxygen humans shall die, but still it's presence is the reason for ageing of humans. Isn't this the check mate for all humans?
