"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...
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world... Strive to be happy."
~ Max Ehrmann
Every line of Max Ehrmann's Desiderata prose poem is full of wisdom and beauty, offering us gentle, kind, and loving wisdom.
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...
May we live this way today, kindly, striving to be happy. Being on good terms with all persons. Building peace within ourselves and the world around us. Trusting in what is unfolding.
With hope,
Charlene
