To earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To follow the way your honest critics want you to trail and change their outlook about you. To suffer the pain your false friends give you from within, but don’t let it show up on the outside.
to leave the world a bit better,
whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch
or a redeemed social condition;
to know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived.
To help out, support and give hope to individuals around. To make the atmosphere around you clean. To lead others to the direction of success. To give in your time? Importance? Show how to care for one unconditionally?
Writeacher I really do not understand "Healthy Child" thing. Also could you add in to this, if u don't mind that is.
Each of us who produces and raises a healthy child to adulthood has contributed to the world, yes?
I don't know what's confusing about "a healthy child"!
Thank you Writeacher; overall does everything seem good? I mean the changes I made...are they good?
Yes, with the exception of those last few lines. What did you decide to write about those last lines?
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends means to value the opinions of those who genuinely care about you and your progress, even if their feedback may be difficult to hear. It also means being prepared for the disappointment of false friends who may pretend to support you, but ultimately deceive you.
In order to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition, it means contributing positively to the world around you. A healthy child can symbolize the importance of nurturing and supporting the next generation. A garden patch represents the act of cultivating and beautifying one's surroundings. A redeemed social condition refers to making a positive impact on the larger society, such as fighting for justice, equality, or social progress.
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived is about making a difference in someone else's life. It means being someone who provides comfort, assistance, or support to others, and knowing that your existence has made their life better, even if it's just for one person.
In summary, the excerpt you provided is urging you to cultivate integrity, face criticism with grace, be wary of false friends, positively contribute to the world, and make a difference in the lives of others.
