To Be Amazing

What is it to be amazing?
Is it what we have done?
Or who we have become from doing?
Could it be decided by what we've failed?
Or where we've survived?
Is it decided by how we help others?
Or could it be from how we treat strangers?
So can you tell me
 What it takes to be amazing?

Been asking myself that same question for years. Is it achievment or simply the way in which we uplift anyone we come in contact each day? Do we have to be amazing or just kind and loving? Thanks for the thoughts. You've got plenty of profound ones. Randy
