Hello Friends and Happy Truth Thursday,

Today I want to share with you a quote I dug up from one of my notes. It's a really powerful way to live and view life. It'll be worth spending some time reflecting on it:

"He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much;

Who has enjoyed the trust of women, the respect of intelligent men and the love of   little children

Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;

Who has never lacked appreciation of Earth's beauty or failed to express it;

Who has left the world better than he found it,

Whether an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul;

who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had.

Whose life was an inspiration.

Whose memory a benediction."

-Bessie Anderson Stanley.

In short,

Enjoy yourself. Be good to your fellow human beings. Master your innate capabilities. Let the world benefit from same. Appreciate and reflect the beauty of nature. And do your own bit in your own way to be better.

THE MOST INSPIRING PEOPLE, ARE THOSE WHO CHOSE, EVERYDAY, TO BE THEMSELVES.

Choose to be who you are. And don't let anyone make you feel bad for being so.

Love,

O.F.P.
