Where I want to be...

Happiness is not my goal - my push, my thrust is toward being the man, the person, the soul I was designed to be, to accomplish all set before me, to love in truth and in kindness, to be truly compassionate, to be honest, to have integrity. I will fail at all of these, from time to time. All I can hope for is that at the end of my life, the abacus beads will lean more heavily on the successes than failures.

  1. I'd bet my money on you having met that goal. Living in that goal. Reading that has changed my day just a bit. Thank you. K

    I stumbled on your message but I don't think it was an accident. I believe your words answered a prayer in ponder.
