Desiderata
by Max Ehrmann, Written in 1927
A poem with verses filled with inpirational words of wisdom. I first heard this poem back in the 1970's and love the common sense and peace it filled me with. It is a poem that most of us have heard at one time or another.
Some of the key lines in the poem are:
Go placidly amid the noise and haste
Be yourself.
the universe is unfolding as it should.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy
