Success
by - August 18, 2005 - HomePage go back
This I found--and like alot!
What is success?
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
