TO LAUGH MUCH AND OFTEN;
TO WIN THE RESPECT OF INTELLIGENT PEOPLE
AND THE AFFECTION OF LITTLE 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 LIVED.
THIS IS WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE SUCCEEDED.
I LOVE THIS NOTE, IT'S BY RALPH WALDO EMERSON.
I HOPE IT INSPIRES YOU.
