let's ask Ralph Waldo Emerson...

 


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.



/ a poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson /
