Things Worth While

This poem hung on the wall of my grandmother’s house.

Things Worth While

Not what you get, but what you give;
Not what you say, but how you live;
Giving the world the love it needs,
Living a life of noble deeds.

Not whence you came, but whither bound;
Not what you have, but whether found;
Strong for the right, the good, the true;
These are the things worth while to you.

Ludvig S. Dale
