Traveling (a poem)

Traveling
To travel
is more important than to arrive,
 
To live
is more important than to survive,
 
To work
is more important than to retire,
 
We need to appreciate
every hour,
 
To think
means more than to pass the test,
 
To strive
means more than to be the best,
 
To climb
means more than to reach the summit,
 
While walking the path,
see the flowers on it,
 
To act
Is more important than to fear a fall,
 
And to Love
Is the most important of all.

    I love the poem. May I have permission to copy it and pass it on to a couple people? (with attribution, of course)
