Joy in our Practice

December 3, 2019

I left my dog in MA for the week and I am all out of sync without her! Sorry this is a day late…

For your post-Thanksgiving reflections I share this sentiment I re-read yesterday for the first time in a long time. Ralph Waldo Emerson’s definition of Success.

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.

Imagine all the opportunities our work has to make us a success!
