He Has Achieved Success

By Bessie A. Stanley

He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty, nor failed to express it; who has looked for the best in others, and has given the best he had; whose life was an inspiration, his memory a benediction.—Bessie A. Stanley.
