Thought for the Day 8/5/2011

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 lived.
                This is to have succeeded.
-  Ralph Waldo Emerson

Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility
count others more significant than yourselves.
Philippians 2:3.
