"To laugh often and much;
to win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;
to earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty;
to find the best in others;
to leave the world a bit better
whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch, or a
redeemed social condition;
to know even one life
has breathed easier
because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded."
--Ralph Waldo Emerson--
That about says it all. Have a great Wednesday!
Wow! What great words! It makes us think about what we do and how we act and gives us a little appreciation for the hard work we are able to accomplish.
