Great Quote

As I was reading the biography of Leo Tolstoy I found the following quote taken from Tolstoy's diary...
The man whose only goal is his own happiness is bad; he whose goal is the good opinion of others is weak; he whose goal is the happiness of others is good; he whose goal is God is great! ~ Leo Tolstoy, Diary, June 29,1852.

I decided to share this quote because I thought it was very profound and so true! The quote goes along perfectly with the theme from the the youth conference I took our teens to a few weeks ago, 'It's not about me." It is about God.
