" Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all." - Benjamin Franklin

This quote in my words means, no matter what you look like, how strong you are, or how much money you have, in the ned one of the only things that matters is your heart and how you treat others. This quote can mean many things to anyone but to me it means that in the end the only thing that counts is how you treat others. For example, me and my mom used to always visit retirement homes because we love to spread happiness and positivitity. We would go to the people and made a couple friends with the people there but sadly we dont go anymore, not because we dont want to but because we have been so busy. I hope to go again soon because it really reminded me of this quote since it talks about a good heart exceeding all. Another big example is with my aiblibgs. I tend to eb the calmer one and not argue with them, so when one or the other is screaming i like to try and calm them down to make sure nothing escalates too quickly. Another example is at school, at this school no one is really 'too popular' or 'a drama queen' which is good because that means everyone has a good heart and treats everyone with respect. I like this quote because it really is something people need to understand, some people believe that happiness comes from being pretty or rich but it really doesn't. Happiness comes from having a good attitude towards people and to be truly happy you need to have a good outlook on life.
