That’s been my thought for a long time.
“That’s been my thought for a long time.”
This brings up a very important truth in life. The true measures of how well you’ve lived your life include how much you’ve grown as a human being, how much you’ve grown spiritually, how much compassion and love you’ve given, the sacrifices you’ve made to contributing to making the world a better place, and what how much you’ve been able to remove yourself from the center of your universe and reach beyond yourself (there are more, for sure, but these are good for the general point).
Conversely, if in the pursuit of fame, recognition/credit, and fortune you’ve behaved badly and routinely hurt others, you really haven’t achieved much of anything.
