Simplified Meaning:

Success is about more than just money or fame. It's about enjoying life and making meaningful connections. If intelligent people respect you and children love you, it means you are trustworthy and kind. Earning the approval of honest critics tells you that you are doing the right things, even when others might try to bring you down. Seeing beauty in the world and recognizing the good in others helps you stay positive and inspired. Making the world better, whether by raising a happy child, growing a garden, or improving society, shows you care about making a difference. If just one person has had an easier life because you are here, you have truly succeeded. For example, helping a friend through a tough time or volunteering in your community, even in small ways, can leave a lasting impact and bring real fulfillment.
