thought for the evening: what good have YOU done today?




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
to 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 that even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
Ralph Waldo Emerson


avec amour, 

athina.
