What is your favorite quote?
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 bit 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 to have succeeded. (It's said to have been said by RalphWaldo Emerson, I'm not sure if that's fact or not).
I've always loved this quote. It's my favorite by far. It really encompasses my work as a social worker to change the world.

I fell in love with him. But I don't just stay with him by default as if there's no one else available to me.
