Linda

Many thanks for adding my great niece, I will add all on your list to my daily quiet time.

Also thank you for the poem, I recall reading it some time ago but could not recall who wrote it,

Praying every one has a good day

Success

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.


Often attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson, it is an adaptation of a poem published in 1905 by Bessie Stanley.

Wishing all a good day today
