you have lived that is to have succeeded



To laugh often and love much;to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children,to earn the approbation of honest critics;to appreciate beauty;to give of one's self,to leave the world a bit better,whether by a healthy child,a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation;to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived that is to have succeeded
~Emerson
