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 lived.
This is to have succeeded.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Obviously he never owned a Ford truck! LOL You notice there is NO mention of money or possessions? I'm just now starting to figure that out, after over 50 years.
