The measure of a man

If you want to know the measure of a man,

Don’t ask what makes him happy, ask him what troubles him.

Don’t ask him what he has, ask him what he lacks

Don’t look at his successes, look at his failures.

Not where he is, but where he wishes to be

Not what he is proud of but what he is ashamed of.

Dont count what he has gained, count what he has lost.

For a man values most, that which he does not have.

Life is life
