I thought you might enjoy these lovely words from Ralph Waldo Emerson:
To laugh often and love much…
To appreciate beauty,
To find the best in others,
To give 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,
This is to have succeeded.
Wishing you joy,
Karen
