About Me
Please have wonderful health:
spiritually, mentally, and physically. .Live at PEACE in your heart and mind, body and SPIRIT!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Desiderata~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Go placidly amid the noise and haste, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and remember what peace there may be in silence.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others,~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
even to the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Exercise caution in your business affairs, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
for the world is full of trickery.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals,~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and everywhere life is full of heroism.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Take kindly the counsel of the years, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace with your soul. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
