The measure of a man is not found in...

The measure of a man is not found in…
 
In the things he own
Or what he saved for retirement
Or even his accomplishments…
The true measure of a man is found
In his faith and his heart.
 
It’s found in the friends who stand by him
The strength he displayed under pressure
The sensitivity he unashamedly expresses
And his willingness to reveal vulnerability
Even at the risk of being hurt.
 
And it’s found in the truth of his words,
The genuineness of his life
His unselfish actions
And the values he lives by.
 
Determine the measure of a man
Not by admiring his trophies
Nor by comparing him to other men
Either weaker or stronger.
 
Determine the measure of a man
By how much you trust him
And believe in him
And by how much his life enhances yours.
 
– Craig Brannon.
