A life well lived...

All this talk of religion, but it's how you live your life that is the all-important thing.

If you set out each day to do all the goodness and kindness that you can, and to do no harm to man or beast, then you are walking the highest path.

And when your time is up, if you can leave the earth a better place than you found it, then yours will have been a life well lived.
 

I never felt any need to use religion as a guide on how to live a good life. Treating others as you would like to be treated yourself should be natural to all.
 
The point is, whatever 'label' you attach to yourself makes no difference, it is the accumulated acts of goodness and kindness that define us and, ultimately, are the true measure of our worth.

Service is the coin of the spirit.

So much truth in your words. Beautiful thoughts and very much the way i feel too.
 
Let the good times roll - BB King.

Hey, everybody, let's have some fun
You only live but once
And when you're dead you're done, so
Let the good times roll, let the good times roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good times roll

Don't sit there mumblin', talkin' trash
If you wanna have a ball
You gotta go out and spend some cash, and
Let the good times roll, let the good times roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good times roll
