SUCCESS
By
Apolinario Villalobos
When does one say, “I am successful”.
Is it when he has become the head of a
country?
…graduated from a prestigious university
with the highest educational degree?
…married and have children
to constitute a big family? or
…become the president of a company
and enjoy the luxury of money?
Success is more than money…
more than an educational degree…
more than a prestigious job…
and
more than a big family.
Success is that which the heart desires,
contentment in life regardless of how
far one has gone,
having used to the fullest what God has
given,
for it is how we are measured when our
life is done.
Success is having shared one’s blessings
with the less fortunate
without expecting something in return;
It is that ecstatic feeling when you
made someone happy
even with just a word of advice or
just being beside him as a needed
company.
Success is that immeasurable feeling of
happiness
when at a ripe age you have no guilt to
amend for,
remorse to cry for, and indebtedness that should be settled
before
your sight is dimmed and you sighed your last.
