I know from the bottom of my heart and with all of it, that it doesn't matter if at the end of your life you can say that you shared the best of yourself with the rest of the world and it doesn't matter if everyone in the world remembers you as wonderful; but what matters is if at the end of your life you can say that you shared the best of yourself with the handful of people who are around you, that you gave the wonderful in you, to the people you love and who love you. Happiness never has and never will come from fame. C. Joybell C.
About This Quote

If you have a desire to be remembered for your good deeds, then you have the wrong idea. Happiness does not come from fame. Fame is a by-product of happiness, not a means to it. The real secrets to a happy life are the things that happen when you least expect them.

Fame comes from being happy. Happiness comes from being kind.
