let them see the beautiful blendings

is stingless indeed,
and as beautiful as life.

saved them from drought, disease, avalanches,

Without service, life becomes meaningless.

A working definition of Honor is,
"respect or esteem that has been earned."
Contemplate that for a moment.

If anything, it is of even more moment to honor yourself.
Those who are successful and happy earn their own
self-respect and self-esteem.
