What is Success?

When was the last time you laughed a big, belly laugh?? Dark humor doesn't count. Think about something that was truly hilarious. Betty A. Stanley highly recommends it. Please enjoy this meditation of his, sent to us by Dr Renu Mital.


What is Success?

By Bettie A. Stanley

To laugh often and much;
to win the respect of the 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 that one life has breathed easier
because you lived here.
This is to have succeeded.
