Who Is Truly Great?

Great is one who humbles oneself; Great is one who accomplishes without expectations; Great is one who labors for others’ welfare; Great is one who struggles for a noble cause; Great is one who gives his life for his Maker’s sake; Great is one who sacrifices his precious life for truth’s sake; Great is one who takes the road least taken; Great is one who climbs life’s steep hills; Great is one who treads dangerous paths for mankind’s progress; Great is one who risks his life unduly to save others’ lives; Great is one who although born or made handicapped does extra-ordinary feats; Great is one who scales heights of achievements rarely done by others; Great is one who toils in sleep-hours too for mankind’s upliftment; Great is one who racks his brain to find a cure for a crippling disease; Great is one who shuns selfishness for the cause of his poorer brethren; Great is one who dies so that others can live in peace; Great is one who lives not for oneself but others; Great is one who loves and forgives his worst foe; Great is one who leads life in accordance with the Word of God!
