what helped me to live on the way through! what helped me to see clearly and to find a feasible path through life! as I saw 25 years ago this text stuck in a book shop in a column, I knew that he means something very special for me. I was looking like a sympathetic-looking saleswoman and told her that I needed urgently a copy and would rather not go away until I had obtained them. Fortunately, the lady to understand, and made a copy for me. Fortunately, they came not to the idea to hand over the text to the purchase of a book bind ... I'm pretty sure that I would have bought a book. in fact I was learning by heart has never been so great, and camera phones, there was no time to ... (Just say no phones!)
now I wish you some quiet moments to enjoy this truly beautiful text and enter into your heart!
(there are other translations of which by the way, but this is and remains for me the most beautiful.)
Go placidly amid the noise and haste and remember how calm it may be in silence. As far as possible - without surrender - was on good terms with everyone. What you have to say, speak quietly and clearly and listen to others, even if they are boring or foolish - for they also have to have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they confuse the mind. If you compare yourself with others, can you become vain and bitter, for always there will be people who are important and better than you. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your career, however humble he may be, it is a real possession in the changing of the times. Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of scammers. But let this not good in the eyes, for virtue is also available. Be yourself Pretend all, no false affection. Neither be cynical when it comes to love is, because despite all the dreariness and disappointment they did not wither, but continues to grow like grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years gracefully surrendering to things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. Do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are aroused by fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline - be gentle with yourself just like trees and stars, You are a child of creation. You have a right to be here. And even if you do not understand, the world unfolds according to God's certain plan. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever he may mean to you. And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of were life - keep peace in your soul. In all the disappointments, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy.
