Success may be a glowing gold star upon ones chest,
yet it is not the true essence of who we are.
Rather it is the struggle and the overcoming of
trials,tribulations and setbacks that truly
is the definition of success and the definer of
who we truly are.
It is the passion of the heart,the desires
of the soul,and the hard work that we put
into all that we do that keep us going when
things don't go according to plan.
The emotions and the experiences that we
share with others as well as the raising
of children and doing what it takes to make
a marriage work that are the essence of success.
