A Life Well-lived

To make a positive difference for others,
to be a good friend,
to live with integrity
and simplicity

To find a balance between
work and play,
effort and rest,
recreation and discipline

To move in rhythm the way nature moves in rhythm:
day and night
low tide and high tide
winter and summer

To rise after every fall

To live with passion,
to cultivate rich and rewarding relationships,
to make a contribution,
to feel valuable and valued

To leave a legacy,
to love and be loved,
and to develop
imperturbable inner peace

These are the ingredients
of a life well-lived
