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
Or a garden patch
To know one life had breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded!
Emerson
