72 DESIDERATA Go placidly amid The noise and The hasTe. and remember whaT peace There may be in silence. As far as possible wiThouT surrender be on good Terms wiTh all per- sons. Speak your Trufh quieTly and clearly: and lisfen To ofhers. even The dull and ig- noranT: They Too have Their sTory. Avoid loud and aggressive persons. They are vexafious To The spiriT. If you compare yourself wifh oThers you may become vain and biTTer: for always There will be greafer and lesser persons Than yourself. Enioy your achievemenfs as well as your plans. Keep inTeresTed in your own career, how- ever humble: iT is a real possession in The changing forTunes of Time. Exercise cau- Tion 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 affecfion. Neifher 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 spirif To shield you in sudden misforTune. BuT do noT dis- Tress- yourself wiTh imaginings. Many Tears are born of faffigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be genTle wiTh yourself. You are a child of The univ- erse no less Than The Trees and The sfars: you have a righT To be here. And wheTher or noT iT is clear To you, no doubf The universe is unfolding as iT should. Therefore be aT peace wiTh God, whafever you conceive Him To be. And whafever your labors and aspirafions, in The noisy confusion of life keep peace wiTh your soul. WiTh all iTs sham. drudgery and broken dreams, iT is sTill a beaufiful world. Be cheerful. STrive To be happy. MAX EHRMANN Copyrighf l927 by Max Ehrmann Copyrighf renewed l954 by BerTha K. Ehrmann ReprinTed by permission Crescendo Publishing Co., Bosfon. Mass.
