A Life Of Value

Is A Person Of Value

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished about a year ago • 1 min read
We thank them for their service

“Try not to become a person of success,

but rather

try to become a person of value”

It is far more important

to be ‘a person of value’

than someone who succeeds all of the time.

‘A person of value’

always strives to have a positive impact

on this world and on other people.

Being positive

brings kindness

and love

and strength

to the society we live in.

Success is important

but it can bring only temporary satisfaction,

whereas

‘persons of value’ bring “value”

to people’s lives today.

How deep is our character?

Or how shallow?

The more determined we are,

the more depth of character

we have to give others.

We want to encourage and inspire

those who we share our lives with,

whether family, friends or even strangers.

It is “good”

to focus on cultivating

a positive and optimistic character

because only then can we contribute

a life of value to the world we live in.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
