To laugh often and love much;
To win the respect of intelligent persons
And the affection of children;
To earn the approval of honest critics
And endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty
To find the best in others;
To give off one’s self without the
Slightest thought of return;
To have accomplished a task, whether
By 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 life has breathed
easier because you have lived;
This Is To Have Succeeded…!
