What is it? What does it mean to you?

Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only then will you find that money cannot be eaten. - -Cree Indian Prophecy

  From my beginings to where I am now, I think I have been very successful and lucky.  If I can live my years out like this, I'll be happy and pleased.  For so many years I really gave a damn what other people thought.  You know what, it didn't mean a damn thing.  Now I don't care what other people think and I practice the Golden Rule and if the people don't like that.  Welllllllllllllllllllllllll.

Any day I wake up with my rights intact, a roof over my head, food to eat, and still sucking air, I consider a success. It's all noise from there. . .

A happy healthy family and looking down at the grass instead of up at the grass.

My teenage daughter and I had this discussion. :smile:

My thoughts pretty much mirror yours and hers are much different. I guess mine were also at the age of 13. Eventuallu she'll learn what true success is and everything else is icing on the cake.
