Subset

Seductive is the subset of attractive, beauty is the subset of Nature creations, hate is the subset of love, doubts are the subset of trust and all subsets are the subset of all. Unlike mathematics where the real numbers are the subset of natural numbers and so on, one particular subset in life is not fixed, for example, failure can be the subset of success and success too can be the subset of failure. If we are to go only when the time is right, where the success rate is up to 100%, then we will never be success, for there will never be one, but higher chances or the other way round. Hence, success is the subset of failure. When one been through hundreds of failures and yet never give up, again and again he stood up from the pain and broken pride, he would somehow reach the top, leading a successful life, being a successful man. That is the time where the failure is the subset of success. There are different subsets in the society, be it a school or company, between two lovers or a group of friends; regular members are the subset of patrol and patrol is the subset of troop, individual is the subset of friends, where friends are the subset of group, group is the subset of community and the community is the subset of country. The subset chain can be carried on and on, where there is no end and no beginning, as we are the ones who hold the key, to narrow down the options, to minimize the subset chain, to lock ourselves up in within and to unlock our future.
