Quote of the Month

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 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 have lived.

This is to have succeeded.


-Ralph Waldo Emerson

ask any of my friends or family "what makes joey tick?" this would be a quote that would surface time and time again. to find the words that Ralph Waldo Emerson used to describe SUCCESS and try to restructure them to mean more... would take a life time. hopefully, my life will succeed those before me and most importantly help pave a road of greater success for those that follow after me.
