.....and this has NOTHING to do with money, power, social position, etc., or any of the "usual" inferences when someone passes by quickly in a hallway and emptily asks, "How ya doin?"

I know sometime you have to toot your own horn but my greatest achievement was raising two decent kids, a boy and a girl, into responsible adults.

I have to duplicate Hippie's answer, well except that I have raised five children :wink: They can aggrevate me sometimes(they know how to push my buttons laugh ), but they have always made me proud bigsmile

Heartbreak. Also, stage fright. I at least now know I got through it.

Two hardworking, compassionate sons who love and respect me. Great friends who have my back and I have their's. A good work ethic which has earned me respect among my co-workers. A positive attitude that allows me to learn from the past but believe that the future will be bright. Above all I have achieved a peace in my life and the knowledge that I am happy with who I am.

Financial security (I mention this because it took a lifetime of hard work and diligence), good health (this also took many years of hard work and diligence), a successful and happy daughter (this was easy because she is an exceptional kid:tongue: ), a grandson who loves and respects his granny (he better!:wink: ), the love of a good man (:heart: )...

Hhhmm, I've acheived... enlightenment, I guess. I have learned many things in all my experiences, and have picked up a jewel or two along the way.

From the perspective of a true Anarchist, I don't believe power to be useful, except in self-defence. I recognize money as a scam designed to steal wealth, and as for social position, I've chosen a considerably more humble lifestyle than I have in decades. In the process, however, I have designed something for the community that I live in that will enable anyone interested in self-sufficiency and actively working to create systems to remove us from the current economic paradigm, and most recently, the mayor has added me as a friend.

Also, this is my first official father's day. Have I said how much I love being a daddy? :banana:

My expectations that I hold myself too make my achievements look really miniscule and I'm not proud of what I have achieved though most say I've achieved a ton I have not yet achieved what I want too!

I've traveled to the lower 48 states,
I opened and ran my own business without borrowing a dime from anyone,
I've played guitar on stage with musicians I respect and they respected me,
I've made love to over 100 beautiful women,
I've raised a son I'm very proud of,
I built my own motorcycle and rode it for 30 years,
I was on local TV,

That's all I can come up with off the top of my head.

Piece of mind...only took 50 years.

Is no small achievement.

As Paul S., my literary teacher, zen master, and only friend and ego-twin put it,

"My parents now think I'd be lucky to amount to nothing."

I have learned how to paint portraits.
I designed three 80 card Tarot decks.
I know how to do astral travel.
I can do a tarot card reading that amazes even me.

I know how to attract wealth when I need it. (and no, I don't have a printing press.)

I have learned: Life is precious. Live simple.

I'm feeling good:
