that has ever occurred to bring me to this moment.

I accept gratefully the entirety of my past and my present life.

not much money, but a rich you;
not many things, but an open being,
available to millions of things.

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.
