Small is the gate and narrow is the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

To Have Succeeded

I stumbled upon a quote this morning while reading THIS article (worth the short read) and I wanted to share. I love quotes and would like to share some of my favorites on this blog from time to time.

Here is my new favorite...

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

I think that just about sums it up.

Happy Tuesday!
