          A meaningful life is not being rich, being 

          popular, being highly educated, or being

          perfect.  It's about being real, being

          humble, being able to share ourselves

              and touch the lives of others.

Very close to the words my father shared before he passed away.  Simply said he told me to put PEOPLE FIRST --- NOT THINGS and I would have a happy life.  Lost my dad very early in my life.

@bonnielu ...I am sorry you lost your dear father early in your life.  My father passed at the age of 96 but because I lived 3,000 miles from him I didn't see him very often.  I adored him and I miss him very much. You had a very wise father.

@Lindsays Grandma  👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 I LOOOOOVE this!!😁 I can't think of anything more rewarding, than being of of service to those we know, and those we meet! These few words, really resonate with me!😊

 

When I was younger, I was a spitfire sometimes, and would probably have scoffed at these words. Today, I humbly cherish them.😁 

 

~~~All we need is LOVE💖
