I just found this one and wanted to share it with all of you. Sure makes sense.
"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 little 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 the meaning of success."

Hey, Jo, I guess we all qualify, as we've all made at LEAST one person breathe easier, and that's ourselves. Good words to live by! _________________
