Success

To laugh often and love much;
To win the respect of intelligent person's and the affection of children;
To earn the approval of honest critic's and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty ;
To find the best in others;
To give of one's self without the slightest thought of return; 
To have accomplished a task, whether a healthy child, a rescued soul, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exaltation;
To know that even one's life has breathed easier because you have lived;
This is to have succeeded.
