I found this quote about 20 years ago and wrote it on a little piece of paper. Somehow, that little paper keeps resurfasing in my office lately (this may be a sad commentary on the orderlyness of my office). Anyway, I thought it was worth sharing with anyone who may have a minute to read it. Who knows, maybe you'll like it enough to write it on some scrach paper and share it with someone in 20 years.
"I have concluded that the accumulation of wealth, even if I could achieve it, is an insufficieint reason for living. When I reach the end of my days, I must look back on something more meaningul than the persuit of houses and land and machines and stocks and bonds. Nor is fame of any lasting benefit. I will consider my earthly existance to have been wasted unless I can recall a loving family, a consistant investment in the lives of people, and an earnest attempt to serve the God who made me. Nothing else makes much sense."
