A Man's Worth

A man's worth depends on what he contributes, not on what he obtains it depends on what he does with his life - on how much he adds to the peace, happiness and beauty of the world. Think of the people you know. Which of the would be most missed, most regretted? Is it not those who are the kindest, the most generous, the most tender-hearted, the most just?
Would it not be far easier to spare the wealthy and the famous than the gentle and sympathetic? When you assess yourself, your position, your character, your achievements, do it in this light. Judge yourself, not from the standpoint of the world, nor of your friends nor even of yourself, but try to see yourself in the light of Eternity.
