I have had two significant kind souls share the following quote with me in the previous month. It makes me think of how much of an impact one person can really have on another. What if we we were conscious in every moment and encounter we had throughout our day. What if we offered the best of who we are, our kindness, our light, I believe we could create harmony and peace to all livings things. We could change the world to consider those without and educate those who don't understand, and love those we don't know. I think this is what life is really about.
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 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 even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
