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.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Max Ehrman (1926)
