“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 little 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!” Ralph Waldo Emerson

Then you, my friend… have already succeeded~!
You have the respect of adults & children alike,
and you have definitely made the world a better place.
While I know you mostly thru your “musings”, your personality shines thru, and I think this quote fits you very well.
