"To do the useful thing,
to contemplate the beautiful thing:
that is enough for one man's life." - T.S. Eliot
I found these thoughts very interesting, especially on the level which asks the question: 'what is success?' We live in a society that is constantly telling us what 'success' looks like, and most of the times it looks nothing like T.S. Eliot's thoughts.
I think if Jesus was asked this question, he would suggest something like this:
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. ’This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” - Matthew 22:37-40
What do you think would constitute a successful life?
Living in Grace
