What Constitutes Elite Status

I've never tasted life, as the elite, Nor been advantaged with copiousness; But I've reveled in success, And likewise, endured the anguish, And frustration of defeat; But still, I won't impugn, those, having thoughts That I've accumulated much; "For little, is much, when God is in it." For as, God has readied each day, He has situated me, with farish health, To continue plowing on; Perhaps this does infer, That just being, places me among them.
