"Try not to be a man of success, but rather a man of value." ~Albert Einstein
Been thinking a lot about success lately…how does one measure the success of another? Is it in the job or position they hold? Is it in the material possessions that they have? Is it the designer clothes that they wear?
I’d like to think that success is so much more than those things…it’s not about the things we have, the things we consume…it’s about the moments in LIFE that somehow, make LIFE livable…and without them, LIFE wouldn’t be complete.
I don’t know what those moments are for you, but for me it’s meeting my husband, marrying him and beginning a life together…it’s spending time with my sisters, whom I cherish more than anything…it's the time spent with my mom and dad, which without them, I wouldn’t be the woman I am today…and perhaps, another moment will emerge in the future, of raising a child to become whatever it is they are born dreaming about…
I believe success isn’t in the material things, but the moments that breathe LIFE into us…
