“ Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all” - Benjamin Franklin

This statement from Benjamin Franklin demonstrates what is truly important within us. He states that great beauty , having great strength, and being rich will have no use at all. However, one with great use will be a right heart. A right heart will exceeds all. When he states “a right heart”, he means that you have a kind heart that chooses the right and does good things in life. For example, if there was a beautiful person who lives in a mansion has an abundant of money and have all the strength and power of the world, but is a bad person, that won’t exceed at all. That person doesn’t have a true heart within them. They must have a right heart and soul that chooses the right like giving money to the poor. That is an example of a right heart would exceed all. Like one quote that stated that when people do good, they will get good stuff. It won’t matter if they are poor or rich , or have strength or not, they have a nice heart in which they choose the right. Benjamin is giving all of us a message that only because you have beauty, strength, and rich, , it doesn’t really mean anything. What means something is your heart. Whether you have nice and caring heart or a bad CTW heart. All of those “goodies” is futile. That is why it’s important to be humble, caring, and thoughtful.
