The measure of a person's worth

My perspective on life is that you have to see life as a journey, and not evaluate it by how quickly you've attained certain milestones or what your destination is.

I think of the journey as the experiences you've gathered. Be they good or bad, painful or delightful. Each one a lesson.

Some of the highlights to me are people. The people in your life you've met. Friendships made.
People who you have made a difference to and the people who have made a difference to you.

I feel that one cannot measure life by milestones. If you do, one belittles their past.

I do not think a man's worth is measured by his bank balance or his career. But by how well-respected he is for his kindness, his compassion and his generosity.

These are the values I hold close to my heart.
