When one’s life is consistent with what they truly value, then life just feels right. But beyond a more self-oriented approach to finding happiness and fulfillment, a good life is making positive differences to those in the family, the community, the country, and the world.

And if worse comes to worst, all people of goodwill can take heart in the fact that when they were living in times that try men’s souls, they stood up straight, remembered their character, and did their best.
