RedFrost Motivation You could do this amazing poem by ANTUN GUSTAV MATOŠ 1873-1914. Poet, essayist, and author of short stories, he is perhaps the most significant name in Croatian literature at the threshold of the 20th century, and a most influential author of modern Croatian writing. Please check this: SHADOW I love the mournful shadow, the dozing light: light which dreams of the night. I love the shadow, twin sister of the warm sun and of the cold moon. I love the shadow, my eternal adopted sister and companion which slumbers beside me, walks near me, my dark picture and my caricature. Yes, I love the shadow, yellow, grey, black; the shadow, sad and silent as death. All, all is shadow. The world is a shadow. And the sun is a shadow of a mystical sun. And life is the shadow of a mystical life. The shadow is a cradle. The shadow is a grave. Before my existence I was but a shadow. And, when I cease to be, I shall be a shadow. I am the shadow of that which I was and of that which I shall be: a shadow between two eternities of haze. All is shadow. The shadow is larger than light, as it is greater at evening than the fields of my grandfather. Wheat and grain spring up in the shadow and die in shadow. Life arises from shadow, wanders in the shadow, and disappears into the shadow. We are shadows. O, Shadow, child of the day and the night! Shadowy morning and purple evening! Shadow, child of darkness and light, pale daughter of enigma, opening melancholy silent weary eyes, and through them life peers wonderingly into mysterious death! Last night, my love, you were trembling against my breast with the moist eyes of affection and happiness. I named you beauty, happiness, and woman, but there remained a handful of ashes in place of honey. Love, you also are a shadow. I am a shadow, and I love the quiet still shadows of the affliction which awaits the new Titans and the new twilights of the gods. The shade told me, the shade which grew larger and larger behind the old oak beneath the moonlight whilst awaiting the dew and the dark song of the nightingale under the shrubbery of the hawthorne and brier rose, such shady, foggy and grey fables. The shade was whispering to me this morning as well, as it walked under the fleecy cloud across the field of stubble, caressing the larks' and the quails' nests, and kissing the quivering tops of the field flowers. Shadow, thou soft pillow of light: Shadow, thou black bed of life! And when once the planets extinguish, you will remain the empress of life. I love you, Shadow, pure silent goddess: lift up your soft mantle of fog streaked with golden secrets, and cover my weary eyes, to close them to embrace my shadow.

Sean Ford System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities..... 1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can. 2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later. 3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most. 4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice. 5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life. 6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it. 7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success. 8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments. 9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences. 10, Always try to give more than you take. Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you. 🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all. People are controlled by system why? The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more. Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix) 😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive.

Ting ting Shiny 🏳️ Don’t trust anything fully 100%. If you do then your conscience won’t work fully. No one knows anything completely. One question leads to another then that question leads to another question so forth. Agnostic made the decision that we can’t know or we can know God, Atheist made the decision there is no God, Theist made the decision there is God, all are wrong. I am who I am as I am in my birthday. Source of creation is God. All depends on each other. We cannot separate anything from everything. Love your love everyday as much as you can. Live very meaningful life of joys then automatically you will share your joys with others. What you expect to do to you for happiness then do to others so you feel usefulness and gratitude to all. Only time truly you are ok when you are okay with everything. It doesn’t mean everything will stay the same forever. Everything will change. Do meditation or have sensory isolation tank experiences.

@@seemlyme hey dude these videos were very good and insightful can you please share your playlist or more videos like these.(although 2nd one is private so couldn't watch it).thanks for sharing.
Reading people’s comments has me in tears. It’s made me realise how small my worries are. My love goes out to everyone who is going through hard times.
When I was about 12 my parents asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I replied, "I want to be happy", I was confused at their response, which was, they just looked at each other. Then I heard this poem.
@@mattmason9982 I am extremely introverted & my best friend is loud & aggressive , but like ying and Yang, we have been best of friends since 7 years old
As someone who has gone through quite a hardships in life, I have realized that no matter what pain and suffering you pass through, never be a bitter person. It will ultimately rot your own soul. Endure with all your might and at the same time fix whatever you can, no matter how small of a matter they are.
@Bosco Brindle The soul is not something that can be proven or conceptualize. You can only experience it when you're in a state of quiet stillness and presence. Start a daily meditation practice. Read Echart Tolle's The power of Now 👍✌
Bosco Brindle The soul is: mind (how you think) will (how you act) and emotions (how you feel) We are all individuals. How we live on this earth is our responsibility. Our ability to respond in any situation. Whether good or bad, all to do with the soul. Back to the beginning, mind, will and emotions. Capish?

The author's insights, expressed in elegant language, encourage us to navigate life's difficulties with grace and resilience. Overall, "Desiderata" remains a beacon of hope and a reminder to lead a meaningful and purposeful life.
Today I have played this poem to my class. They all went silent. I asked them why, they said, they had a lot to reflect on from the poem. After the lessons, some of them followed me and shared their thoughts with me. I'm so glad that it inspired them.
ROSN11 back when I was at Uni 40 years ago a lot of people had the poem Desiderata on a poster which was hung up on many walls. I wonder how many of us lived up to it, I don’t think I did to be honest
@@barb4645 I'm sure it can be a source of inspiration anytime in life, reflect on its words and perhaps try again. I hope it hits that special place in your heart. 😌❤
I have had a poster of these clear words since 16 years. parts have really resonated down the years. At 63 I still believe its the best life advice I have ever had.
melanie scott, I’m 69 years old and I too had this poem as a felt scroll hanging in my bedroom as a teenager. I’ve always loved the message here. Just sent it to my granddaughter for her to ponder. Lovely❤️
melanie scott My mother hung a framed copy of this in my room when I was about 13 years old. It served me well over the years, calming my anxieties and helping me deal with many traumas.
I found a copy of this poem in the items belonging to my brother, who died in the early 60's. I kept it with me through the years. Then I found a framed copy in a Christian Bookstore in the 90's which I purchased. As a teacher, I gave copies to students when they graduated from High School. I always loved this poem and still have my framed copy. I read it, every now and then. It speaks truth, if you really listen.
In 1991 a new friend gave me this poem in a small, velvety book. The moment I read it, I knew the new friend would one day be an old one. Over 30 yrs later I can no longer remember my life without him or Desiderata in it. These comments really bring home how we think we're the only ones having certain experiences when so much is universal. Seeing how much this poem has meant to so many other people hit me in a deep, physical way. To all the people just finding it, may it take up residence in your soul and feed you as well. XO

This is the first time listening to a poem like this one Thank you your words 🙏 I just wanted to say a little about my life! My Mother of 74yrs old has Alzheimer's. It slowly progressed over the past 4 yrs after her lung cancer operation but now it's progressing at an alarming rate! Im trying to understand how to care for her but I am physically in ruff shape fr. a MVA in 1994 Half my body was crushed I was hospitalized for 3 mts @28 yrs old at the time I'm 55 now. I vowed I would walk again & help my husband look after our 3 little ones. Now I have 4 grand kids💓 My husband has scoliosis & is trying to help me out as I help my parents I'm going to have to try to move closer to my them so I can help more often but I keep ending up in the hospital after a week! I could go on for miles with sad stories BUT 🙋 I WILL KEEP MY FATH IN TRYING TO ACHIEVE MY GOALS 😉
I used to listen to the song Deserata , sung my les Crane every day to keep my sanity when I lost my Daughter, Mother, Father and then my son in 1981, 1982, 1982, 1983... this song kept my sanity
You are truly a strong person!!! WOW I just could NEVER imagine surviving something like that. I only just lost the love of my life last year, and am still grieving and angry and hurt and depressed. How did you do it??!?!?
@@ruthymorales7208 ...dear one, every heartbeat of love that you both shared, you get to keep. these memories belong to you, the shared dreams are real and true, and cannot be taken from you. i promise you that that dull pain will subside, and your heart will find peace... keep breathing, keep living, keep loving. as the poem says, we certainly can be kind to ourselves.
@Zain.. I lost my Mom a month n half ago to Covid, the realization of her passing is starting to sink in and my soul is so sad. I can't begin to understand the losses in your life. This is so hard. One day at a time. I do hope we get to see them again. I THINK TO MYSELF WHAT IS LIFE? What is the point? So much suffering... what is the point? A lot of talk talk talk ... for what? To APPRECIATE what?
My Father In Law passed away about 15yrs ago. When he died, while I was cleaning his closet out, I found this poem in a plastic sleeve sitting purposely & perfectly on an empty shelf he must've cleaned off himself. I said why would he leave this. I started to read it. As I read tears fell from my eyes. It was then that I claimed this poem for myself as a lover of poetry myself. I refer to it as my 10 Comandments 🙏😥❤✌
I remember my high school teacher requiring our class to memorize and recite this poem one by one. Everyone delivered it powerfully and aggressively, some even shouted a few lines, including me. 10 years later I realized how wrong we were. This is one of the most gentle poems I ever read.
Sometimes we must shout to ourselves to block out all the noise around us so we can hear the words. That noise being parents, teachers, leaders, even friends.
" In the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul,with all its sham , drudgery and broken dreams its still a beautiful world ,be cheerful strive to be happy." I learned this poem when i was 16 and now im 65 but still always reading it.This poem serves as my guide esp during hard times.
“You will face many defeats in life, but never let yourself be defeated.” “The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”
My Beloved Father gave me a framed print of this when I was sixteen years old. I am now 63 years old and have lived these precious words. With gratitude and love, thank you
I'm 53, & hearing it for the first time. I will be getting copies of it to ALL my nieces & nephews! (My wife died young. Car wreck. We had no children. I wish I had heard these words back then. Ironically, I live by these words most of the time these days. But we all have off days.)
Dit is tegen het globalistiche idee!,en voor de persoonlijke ontwikkeling van een kind zijn geest!! Dus zal wel niet nodig ( nuttig,) zijn! En verboden te geven op straf van ontslag voor de "staats opvoeders" " Zich heil" Eu!
3:05 *"You are a child of the universe,* *no less than the trees and the stars;* *you have a right to be here"* For someone who has depression that made me cry so badly 😢 it's so touching
I am going through one of the lowest points in my life right now, when I got this notification out of the blue. I really needed to hear this today. Thank you for your work and your channel, it helps a lot of people
This is the poem I have committed to memory and taken to heart. Whenever I feel lost, frustrated, insecure, or just plain sad (there are days that we just feel it, despite having no reason to be), I'd tell myself this poem. and everything lightens up. Whenever you're feeling low, may you remind yourself of this poem. Tell it to yourself. Speak it with your heart. For it will remind you how life is, not how it should be. May it reveal to you once more how to live life the way it's meant to be. For this is the Desiderata, the 'things desired'.
Thanks a lot for your message of wisdom and comfort, I highly appreciate it a million times. Do you perhaps know of the best poem book that I can purchase for myself?
This sounds like a call to you to one remember the truth. With out body as a “church” and soul as “god.” For an atheist, a prayer to remind one of our essence.
Thankyou. for telling us what desiderata means. I cant remember who sang this but it came out in the fifty’s or sixtys as a song. As a child I memorized it I love the richness of the speakers deep voice.
The line, "You have a right to be here" has always been one of the most touching parts of this poem to me. My whole life I've tried not to take up too much space or too much time or be in anyone's way, always terrified of being burdensome. In fact, one of my favorite lines from one of my other favorite poems is from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock: "Do I dare Disturb the Universe?" It's a banner I've always felt has hung over my life, but the line from this poem, "You have a right to be here" is a quiet declaration to the contrary. Whenever I want my voice to be heard, or when I'm looking at something in the store and feel as though I have to move out of the way prematurely; I always think to myself, "you have a right to be here."
Well said. You’re not alone many in this world incl myself grew up feeling the same. But not all of us find the courage to speak our truth even quietly. For me I found I could start with saying I’m no less entitled or no less deserving than any other. That helped. Because the message I got from so many was the opposite. But once you realize it’s about them and we’re all victims of victims and a lot of suppressed pain in this world it changes our filter. Keep strong and taking up space. You’ll inspire others to speak their truth and do the same and part of a new better world. 🙏👏
Well said, thank you for sharing, praying for all the tender, humble soul's out there in the world right now, praying for the strength we so many of us need right now. God bless you for your honesty, you are awesome. 👍🙏😇❤💕
You most definitely have a right to be here, for you are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars! 🌟🌟🌟 shine bright! And thank you for sharing your truth so eloquently. I too can relate.
S.B. I indirectly relate to your comment thru a poem that is in Leo Buscaglia's book "Living. Loving. Learning". He describes a suicidal woman who wrote a poem before jumping off of a cliff (IF I am recalling correctly, as I am not sure because it's been decades). "...You thought that I was transparent & easily forgotten. Why then, did you try to use my lifetime to prove to yourself who you are."
When I was 16, my English teacher made our whole class memorize this piece by heart. Of course, we memorized it without full realization as to what the meaning is. Now that the adult life hit as if with a hammer, this makes so much sense and is a big source of wisdom which I'm hoping to remind myself of everyday. Thank you, TH-cam algorithm, Max Ehrmann and the channel :)
11 years ago, our 5th grade teacher instructed us to memorize this beauty. She passed away last month and it was so sad. I'll be always grateful of her for engraving this poem in my heart. This is the only poem I can commit to memory after all these years and it always reminds me that life is good when you let things be and place your feet on the ground.
Randy Kunath System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities..... 1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can. 2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later. 3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most. 4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice. 5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life. 6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it. 7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success. 8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments. 9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences. 10, Always try to give more than you take. Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you. 🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all. People are controlled by system why? The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more. Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix) 😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression. th-cam.com/video/HbvCxMfcKv4/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/Z_Mxjdrd7Sw/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/wLzeakKC6fE/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/P8vHa8zD7jY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/pIJHJzDQcRM/w-d-xo.html
Randy Kunath 🏳️ Don’t trust anything fully 100%. If you do then your conscience won’t work fully. No one knows anything completely. One question leads to another then that question leads to another question so forth. Agnostic made the decision that we can’t know or we can know God, Atheist made the decision there is no God, Theist made the decision there is God, all are wrong. I am who I am as I am in my birthday. Source of creation is God. All depends on each other. We cannot separate anything from everything. Love your love everyday as much as you can. Live very meaningful life of joys then automatically you will share your joys with others. What you expect to do to you for happiness then do to others so you feel usefulness and gratitude to all. Only time truly you are ok when you are okay with everything. It doesn’t mean everything will stay the same forever. Everything will change. Do meditation or have sensory isolation tank experiences.

Q ALI, what a stupid comment. If someone falls down and breaks their finger, are you going to say, "Don't feel pain. We are all in this together." Stupid. Ignorant. Smh.
@Alexandra Alexandra yep all planned and faked accordingly. Only when humans wake up and realise the media and politicians are lying to them can this world be free from evil. www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/videos.html
I have had this on a plaque since 1960's and I am 71 yrs old..Have striven to this my whole life..I have left a special note on the back for my grown children & grandchildren..Thank you & blessings
My english teacher gave everyone in my class a copy of this poem on the last day of school, before we finished high school (very abruptly in march last year), and I've still got it pinned up on my bedroom wall now. She was such a good teacher, and I hope I never forget her.
This is very beautiful. I feel that we are lacking the loving, protective voice of elders in our world today. Those who have neared the end of their journeys and have such things to say to us, but rarely do we hear them speak. I really enjoyed listening to this poem spoken by an elder, he has a voice like an ancient tree, very strong and resolute, but also gentle, loving and humble.
I had this poem in my bedroom as a kid, I bought it and loved it. I was a good kid, though few were kind and considerate. The years have proven this poem very helpful to me. Every child ought to have this in their bedroom while growing up. It keeps one humane. 👍
I Also had this hanging on my closet door as a teenager n over the years I've lost sight of its profound teachings ..as an adult I was so promiscuous .. But always kind n caring n now as I'm older it returns to haunt me .. I have loved life n given life n Taught life/Desiderata to my 5 son's ..I Am proud of this one accomplishment
I first read this at 20 and loved it, I wrote it down and shared it with many on my travels around the world. I had the wonderlust in those days. I am now nearly 50, and have not read or heard it since, and yet the words fell from my mind as easily as if I had heard it for the first time yesterday. It was just as relevant, more so perhaps, having lived through the summer of my life and easing into it's autumn. I now KNOW the meaning of this beautiful prose, and they are ever more profound, as I have lived them. Thank you for making this, it made me smile and brought back precious memories of days that have faded like autumn leaves.

@@revitalizedbornagain4418 i'm so sorry for your lost, believe when i say this to you : your son is in peace right now .. he want you to be happy, we all going to die someday that what i want you to remember .. sooner or later everyone will face the same faith , you & me & anyone we know . your son is a pure soul that go first , do not lost hope we are all with you .. stay strong and believe in faith
I first read this poem well over 12 years ago. It was a very tough time for me. I typed it up and printed it out and carried it in my pocket. I shared it with others whilst in their hardships and I still quote sections of it today. Thank You for spreading this.
These WORDS allowed my SOUL to SURVIVE . when I read DECIDERATA . I physically and emotionallly climbed the HIGHEST PEAKS. dived into the DEPTHS of ANTARCTICA. SURVIVED 2 nervous breakdowns. Love this voice! 74 year young FEMINIST. Powerful rendition of the phyilosofy of the POET. Thank you for your reading. I needed it to remind ME I am not ALONE. 🎉❤💃🏻👍🌪️
My internship as a therapist was working for a school in Phoenix, AZ called “Desiderata.” The school was named after the poem, and all the kids had to learn it. It was an alternative school for kids with emotional and behavioral problems who couldn’t attend their regular schools. The poem is beautiful. And the school is doing amazing work with kids who desperately need it ❤️✨
daboob24 So touching, this poem facinated me and I did a detailed research and found amazing details, Did you know Les Cranes narration of this piem won Grammy for Best Spoken Word Recording of 1971. you can listen musical version at th-cam.com/video/1uVeilqHWZ4/w-d-xo.html on my page and read full details in my blog.
My favorite poem, a poster, hung on a sliding closet door at the tender age of 16, soon to be 68 .....This spoke to my heart, for the existence of humanity ......Regardless of color, culture or traditional upbringing, we have a right to be here...God Bless Us All .....❤🌹 < 💜 (✞)~>*..... ( Numbers 6: 24-25).....Shalom
I found this poem when I was a teenager after leaving the church and struggling to find my own path. It helped me to understand that virtue and morality are not exclusive to religion, and formed the foundation of my life's journey. 30 years later it still brings me to tears. For anyone finding this poem today, listen carefully. There is tremendous wisdom in these words. 💜
I lost my father on the 21st of June 2023, this poem brings mixed emotions, and shows me the path forward now that my father is no longer here, for some of the lines are words he uttered to me often. Rest in Peace Dad, Rest in Peace - Dama Toane. 💔
my mother had this on a wall in a picture frame when i was a child😢 ... 30 years later here it is 🥰 you wouldn't believe the feelings of nostalgia i have right now 😱
"You are a child of the universe, no less than the tress and stars. You have a right to be here." A timeless poem written so beautifully. This is truly one of the best pieces I have read.
After a break up prison penniless and heartache I needed to hear this beautiful poem I will continue to strive and stay hungry its still a beautiful world and life is a gift thank you to anyone else going thru hard times ur worth it and I pray for you as so many have for me so I pay it forward and strive to try and make this world a better place before I leave
Desiderata Words For Life. During my incarceration, I read this almost daily, and copied this 25 times for those that needed to have them in their lives. It's helped me in a great many ways.
In the 70's I clipped this from a magazine.I carried it with me in my collection of poetry.I lost it in the 80's and have not seen it since. The poem is still as profound today as it was then.Thank you for the narration and words.
I have this framed in my living room. Had it for 50 years. I am now 70. So special . Says what my heart and soul tell me in a poem🙏❤️💕 To my daughters and Grandchildren! Nenee
My brother was shown this poem by my grandfather one summer while my brother lived with him and my grandmother in a small, Mexican fishing town - the Spanish version. This week, I’ve gone through adversity and learned a lot about myself. He showed it to me because of my situation. Tonight as I walk and look up at the sky while listening to this poem, it’s as if my grandfather relayed this poem to me thru time via my brother, and I felt a connection with him for the first time since he passed. Life is indeed beautiful.
"With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world." Got me there. When you've lost hope from this COVID 19 pandemic -- lost hope from this mad world, after all, it is still a beautiful world
Rozelle, take heart, keep hope - for This Too Shall Pass..... 🌱 Hold onto your hopes and dreams, don't let go... I hear you and you are not alone 💝🌻🌱👀👭 ✨ 🌼🌷🌹💞💜
A total stranger sharing a grocery store line with me agreed simply that there's a lot of good character building lessons in every event we encounter in our world. Xo
So Much Love Shared by a Bunch of Total Strangers. But Our Hearts Are One! In Healing Belief that We that are Still Here Are Here For A Purpose! Stay Strong & Share Your Love with Others.
I can't stop listening to this, I have no memory of it, no one to relate it to, no teacher that ever asked me to memorize it.. And yet, it's touched a place in my heart that I have lost touch with I will listen again
This poem is so beautiful and always makes me tear up a little. Especially the end, it really is such a beautiful world in spite of the evil that exists in it. 3 years ago, my time here almost expired. But I'm so happy I'm still here. Life is beautiful.
Hi. I have a picture on my wall that i love and have had for years. The cranky recital happening here is very disturbing to me. It sounds like doom instead of enlightenment.
Thank you for original post. I gave a copy to my cousin Eddie when he came to visit me 25 years ago. I typed it for him from the hanging on my wall because I had never seen him quite as moved m by anything. He folded it neatly and placed it in his wallet. We lost him to cancer 8 years ago. His sister told me that he still had that in his wallet and had read it to the family one Thanksgiving Day. We loved each other dearly although work and time had separated us many miles apart by the time we were 30. I’ll soon be 60 and he had 7 years on me. Of course I think of him and smile every time I see or hear this poem. In memory of Eddie; the one who never married, decided to always look after his Mom, simply let every one wonder what his plans were, laughed and said he had no plans. Wherever Mom wants to go, he will drive. It’s the least he could do until something else happens. He did outlive her by a couple years or few. Now my memory is shot, so I can’t be exact. I’m sure they both preferred it that way, as I sure want my son to outlive me :) OF COURSE I wish you many many years of long happy life ahead LoL! Had to edit that in, as your saving your copy is what touched my heart and the only part that reminded me of my cousin, how important this can be to we who understand it. Thank you again. Namaste’
"Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others , even the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons." Love it!
Thank you Max Ehrmann for saving my life, the words in this powerful poem are what keep me wanting to stay alive right now and hoping for things to get better. There is a glimmer of light through the gloom, this is a reminder of that
We are here for but a moment. We've been here before, and will live other lives. Earth is a planet for the bravest souls. Walk with your spirit, as if it were the last soul to cultivate. YOU are a precious inextinguishable 🕯️
This poem reminds me of my late dad, Mariano, 🥺 and makes me feel very emotional when I hear it... Especially, the part that says "you are the child of the universe no less than the stars... You have a right to be here" and " strive to be happy"... He always used to tell me to be happy... And it's been some year losing my dad.. my job due to the pandemic... It has been tough to keep balance.... 🥺 May his soul rest in eternal peace. Amen.
I just came upon this reading. And then read your response and it move me. This has been a difficult year and I have suffered quite a few unexpected tragedies in life. I am now caring for my beloved mother who is not doing well, non-COVID-19 related. She is a almost 90 year old warrior and I love being there for her. Thank God I still have her in my life and that we live so close to one another. Bless you and keep your comments coming.

The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive.

"In the noisy confusion of life keep peace in your soul" ☯️🙏🏾👌🏾☮️ Such a beautiful poem! printed this out 15yrs ago n still one of my go to mantras ❤️💯 - peace to one an all ✌🏾
My mother had this hanging in her office and the house growing up as long as I can remember. As a person whom has looked at and read this daily for his entire life as an Empath, I must say I wouldn't be the same had it not been in my life as such. She knew what she was doing that's for sure.
This was my grandfather's favorite poem so we had it printed & framed and gave it to my dad, who hung it in his office. My dad died less than two years after his father so now the poem sits beside his photo. I try to read it often and feel it in my heart.
I’ve memorized this poem from high school subject, I didn’t know the deep meaning of this until I became a mom of 2 this sums up my realizations and learnings in life. “Don’t compare yourself with anybody else for always there will be greater and lesser person than you.”
I am having some difficult days with school pressure, mom's constant nagging and lectures that makes me sad about myself but seeing this has really made me feel much better. Thank you Desiderata 😭
I was given this by my husband in 1983 I was 43 at the time I am now 80 it has hung in my kitchen all these years it does good to read it once a day and you'll be happy ♡ believe me ♡ Best gift ever, thank you Joe♡
I had this poem tacked to cork board on my bedroom wall when I was a teen. It really meant something to me. Hearing it just now, having just turned 59, it struck me that back as a teen, this poem embodied the qualities of the person I wanted to be.
I came across this song and poem when I was in Middle School Form 3 in 1968 and fell in love with it and it has been the light in my path in this journey of life .
"With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.. Be cheerful.. Strive to be happy." Such a motivational poem with enlightening life lessons! Envisioning an ideal world where everything is hunky-dory is like living in a fool's paradise. The real world is run-of-the-mill.. ugly.. harsh.. scheming..hypocritical..heartless.. gloomy and yet welcoming n marvellous. It is our own approach to living..of being our own selves in the face of adversities n our responses to them.. that make all the difference..
My favorite line...you are a child of the universe...no less than the trees, & the stars...you have a right to be here...this has guided me for 40+years...like CREATION throwing me a lifeline. I've used that lifeline to help others whose self-esteem has been damaged by the dysfunctional people in their lives. If you have a narcissist in your life...you know what I mean...so go placidly through the noise, & haste...be yourself, be free.
I have had this poem framed on my wall for a long time. Yet hearing it read out loud made my hair stand. The power of the spoken word surely trumps the sword.
This was one of Moms most favorites. She gave it printed to others. She passed Tuesday and this showed up in my feed. I'll miss and mourn her for the rest of my life.
April 2020: “You are a child of the Universe. You have a right to be here. Keep peace in your soul. Is still a beautiful world. Therefore be at peace with God” 💚♥️💚♥️💚
Lisa Hinton 1st it’s not DR... But DE. 2nd, I don’t know that word: “uglified” but if it comes from ugly, then it’s your point of view. If you see something ugly...I cannot change it, you have to change the way you see it by yourself, in order to see the beauty in general, or, you can turn your head, and watch something else, on the other side... In any case, enjoy your life, love and be loved.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. I disagree to this when I was younger, but now at this age, I crave the company of serene people.
The writer did not say "everything is 100 percent accurate" but so close or not far from the point. Every line in this poem is like words of God Himself.
Learn poem this at age 12. Taught it to my children. It is my manual for a graceful, cheerful and grateful life. It inspired me to be a better poet. Grateful.
TheRds797 may she rest in peace, this poem is heavenly and was also used in church sermons. Les Cranes narration won Grammy for Best Spoken Word Recording of 1971. Poem has facinating story behind. you can listen musical version at th-cam.com/video/1uVeilqHWZ4/w-d-xo.html on my page and read full details in my blog.
TheRds797 System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities..... 1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can. 2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later. 3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most. 4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice. 5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life. 6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it. 7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success. 8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments. 9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences. 10, Always try to give more than you take. Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you. 🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all. People are controlled by system why? The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more. Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix) 😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive.

I was a troubled child, 14 years old and doing everything a 14 year old shouldn't be doing. One day my physics teacher had enough of my misbehaviour in class, and handed me desiderata on a piece of paper and told me I had to write it down as a punishment exercise, so I did. Over the coming weeks I got given this exercise several times, to the point I could write it without looking at the paper. Now 20 years later I often read it back and realize how it has shaped me as a man, a father and a kind human being who strives to get along, help others and act with integrity. Thank you Mr Gray.
We have had a print of this hanging in our home for 40 years now. The first time I saw it was when I met my wife. it was hanging on the wall in her Apartment. She had me read it out loud ad it moved me to tears. It might be the she decided to marry me after that!
I had a poster of this poem when I was younger. I had completely forgotten about it until I heard this. It will forever be engrained in my head. Thank you for this one.

Invictus.
If, by Kipling
RedFrost Motivation You could do this amazing poem by ANTUN GUSTAV MATOŠ 1873-1914. Poet, essayist, and author of short stories, he is perhaps the most significant name in Croatian literature at the threshold of the 20th century, and a most influential author of modern Croatian writing. Please check this:
SHADOW
I love the mournful shadow, the dozing light: light which dreams of the night. I love the shadow, twin sister of the warm sun and of the cold moon. I love the shadow, my eternal adopted sister and companion which slumbers beside me, walks near me, my dark picture and my caricature. Yes, I love the shadow, yellow, grey, black; the shadow, sad and silent as death.
All, all is shadow. The world is a shadow. And the sun is a shadow of a mystical sun. And life is the shadow of a mystical life. The shadow is a cradle. The shadow is a grave. Before my existence I was but a shadow. And, when I cease to be, I shall be a shadow. I am the shadow of that which I was and of that which I shall be: a shadow between two eternities of haze. All is shadow.
The shadow is larger than light, as it is greater at evening than the fields of my grandfather. Wheat and grain spring up in the shadow and die in shadow. Life arises from shadow, wanders in the shadow, and disappears into the shadow.
We are shadows.
O, Shadow, child of the day and the night! Shadowy morning and purple evening! Shadow, child of darkness and light, pale daughter of enigma, opening melancholy silent weary eyes, and through them life peers wonderingly into mysterious death! Last night, my love, you were trembling against my breast with the moist eyes of affection and happiness. I named you beauty, happiness, and woman, but there remained a handful of ashes in place of honey. Love, you also are a shadow.
I am a shadow, and I love the quiet still shadows of the affliction which awaits the new Titans and the new twilights of the gods.
The shade told me, the shade which grew larger and larger behind the old oak beneath the moonlight whilst awaiting the dew and the dark song of the nightingale under the shrubbery of the hawthorne and brier rose, such shady, foggy and grey fables. The shade was whispering to me this morning as well, as it walked under the fleecy cloud across the field of stubble, caressing the larks' and the quails' nests, and kissing the quivering tops of the field flowers.
Shadow, thou soft pillow of light: Shadow, thou black bed of life! And when once the planets extinguish, you will remain the empress of life.
I love you, Shadow, pure silent goddess: lift up your soft mantle of fog streaked with golden secrets, and cover my weary eyes, to close them to embrace my shadow.

"Don't pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult life"
no
Hell yeah
Good quote.
Behind all the insecurities, there is an universal awareness and mild fear of slow death.
Pray for the wisdom to make the right choices.
" Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others , even the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story."

The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more.
Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)
😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression.

Ting ting Shiny 🏳️ Don’t trust anything fully 100%. If you do then your conscience won’t work fully. No one knows anything completely. One question leads to another then that question leads to another question so forth. Agnostic made the decision that we can’t know or we can know God, Atheist made the decision there is no God, Theist made the decision there is God, all are wrong. I am who I am as I am in my birthday. Source of creation is God. All depends on each other. We cannot separate anything from everything. Love your love everyday as much as you can. Live very meaningful life of joys then automatically you will share your joys with others. What you expect to do to you for happiness then do to others so you feel usefulness and gratitude to all. Only time truly you are ok when you are okay with everything. It doesn’t mean everything will stay the same forever. Everything will change. Do meditation or have sensory isolation tank experiences.

@@shanenejad hi Shane! Wonderful moving words! Stay Safe Friend .
"If you compare yourself to others, you may become vain or bitter. For always there will be greater or lesser persons than yourself"
One of my sins.... but everytime I catch myself comparing myself to others I remember this line
in modern terms: ignore social media - a pit of miserable comparisons.
When I was about 12 my parents asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I replied, "I want to be happy", I was confused at their response, which was, they just looked at each other. Then I heard this poem.
I think that's the best line.
Spot on
Before my father died he told me to read Desiderata. Little did I know, he will comfort me through this poem in this hard times. I miss you papa 😔
Did your read it?
Duh@@PicafloresOficial
God Bless You!!🙏💖🌟🇬🇧
Same, ive got the print out on my wall to this day, he scribbled lessons for life on it
“Avoid loud and aggressive people; they are vexations to the spirit” BIG TRUTH
That line stuck out to me as well. They are beyond exhausting
My aunt is that way. I am very saddened by it since I can only be around her for a couple of minutes because her energy is too thick. 🙏
@@cartergomez5390 same here can't listen to my auntie for more than few minutes she's exhausting

As someone who has gone through quite a hardships in life, I have realized that no matter what pain and suffering you pass through, never be a bitter person. It will ultimately rot your own soul. Endure with all your might and at the same time fix whatever you can, no matter how small of a matter they are.
Some times hard difficult times makes one stronger ....yet more accutely aware of others sufferings ..
@Bosco Brindle The soul is not something that can be proven or conceptualize. You can only experience it when you're in a state of quiet stillness and presence. Start a daily meditation practice. Read Echart Tolle's The power of Now 👍✌

The soul is: mind (how you think) will (how you act) and emotions (how you feel)
We are all individuals. How we live on this earth is our responsibility.
Our ability to respond in any situation. Whether good or bad, all to do with the soul. Back to the beginning, mind, will and emotions. Capish?
"Desiderata" is a timeless poem that offers profound wisdom and solace during challenging times. The poem reminds us to maintain a balanced perspective and strive for inner peace, regardless of life's ups and downs. Its guidance on self-acceptance, kindness, and humility resonates deeply, making it a source of comfort and inspiration. The author's insights, expressed in elegant language, encourage us to navigate life's difficulties with grace and resilience. Overall, "Desiderata" remains a beacon of hope and a reminder to lead a meaningful and purposeful life.
So very well said!!
this poem saved me- the most incredible thing is the year this was written 🤩
And his wife decided to get it published when he passed away 🙌🙌🙌
Amen To That!!!🙏💖🌟🇬🇧
Today I have played this poem to my class. They all went silent. I asked them why, they said, they had a lot to reflect on from the poem. After the lessons, some of them followed me and shared their thoughts with me. I'm so glad that it inspired them.
Hell yeah spread the word!
That has to be one of the most touching poems one could randomly stumble across. Absolutely remarkable!
It was a prayer made by Saint Francis of Assisi
@@timothygicuki9622 you are right. Thank you ! Blessings

ROSN11 back when I was at Uni 40 years ago a lot of people had the poem Desiderata on a poster which was hung up on many walls. I wonder how many of us lived up to it, I don’t think I did to be honest
@@barb4645 I'm sure it can be a source of inspiration anytime in life, reflect on its words and perhaps try again. I hope it hits that special place in your heart. 😌❤
“With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world”....that’s very reassuring.💞
Thank you.God bless.
But you still have to do something positive to change this. If we all thinks the same way, we're doomed as a civilization.

I have had a poster of these clear words since 16 years. parts have really resonated down the years. At 63 I still believe its the best life advice I have ever had.
melanie scott, I’m 69 years old and I too had this poem as a felt scroll hanging in my bedroom as a teenager. I’ve always loved the message here. Just sent it to my granddaughter for her to ponder. Lovely❤️
I too have the scroll of this when I was a teenager best life advice specially the millennial Youths
I‘m 75, this words saved my life 50 years ago! I wrote it down… this sheet still exists! To find the poem here makes me very very happy ❤️
melanie scott My mother hung a framed copy of this in my room when I was about 13 years old. It served me well over the years, calming my anxieties and helping me deal with many traumas.
I found a copy of this poem in the items belonging to my brother, who died in the early 60's. I kept it with me through the years. Then I found a framed copy in a Christian Bookstore in the 90's which I purchased. As a teacher, I gave copies to students when they graduated from High School. I always loved this poem and still have my framed copy. I read it, every now and then. It speaks truth, if you really listen.
In 1991 a new friend gave me this poem in a small, velvety book. The moment I read it, I knew the new friend would one day be an old one. Over 30 yrs later I can no longer remember my life without him or Desiderata in it. These comments really bring home how we think we're the only ones having certain experiences when so much is universal. Seeing how much this poem has meant to so many other people hit me in a deep, physical way. To all the people just finding it, may it take up residence in your soul and feed you as well. XO
With all its sham
drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.
To all broken people. With a broken heart.
Visakh Praveen System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities.....
1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can.
2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later.
3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most.
4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice.
5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life.
6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it.
7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success.
8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments.
9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences.
10, Always try to give more than you take.
Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you.
🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.

My Father In Law passed away about 15yrs ago. When he died, while I was cleaning his closet out, I found this poem in a plastic sleeve sitting purposely & perfectly on an empty shelf he must've cleaned off himself. I said why would he leave this. I started to read it. As I read tears fell from my eyes. It was then that I claimed this poem for myself as a lover of poetry myself. I refer to it as my 10 Comandments 🙏😥❤✌
Same here, My fathers just passed and I was just cleaning his apartment last week and found this inspirational peace above his mirror.
I remember my high school teacher requiring our class to memorize and recite this poem one by one. Everyone delivered it powerfully and aggressively, some even shouted a few lines, including me. 10 years later I realized how wrong we were. This is one of the most gentle poems I ever read.

Whenever you're feeling low, may you remind yourself of this poem. Tell it to yourself. Speak it with your heart. For it will remind you how life is, not how it should be. May it reveal to you once more how to live life the way it's meant to be. For this is the Desiderata, the 'things desired'.
Thanks a lot for your message of wisdom and comfort, I highly appreciate it a million times.
Do you perhaps know of the best poem book that I can purchase for myself?
God bless you
Ailys Turner me too x Jb x
This sounds like a call to you to one remember the truth. With out body as a “church” and soul as “god.” For an atheist, a prayer to remind one of our essence.
Thankyou. for telling us what desiderata means. I cant remember who sang this but it came out in the fifty’s or sixtys as a song. As a child I memorized it I love the richness of the speakers deep voice.
The line, "You have a right to be here" has always been one of the most touching parts of this poem to me. My whole life I've tried not to take up too much space or too much time or be in anyone's way, always terrified of being burdensome. In fact, one of my favorite lines from one of my other favorite poems is from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock: "Do I dare Disturb the Universe?" It's a banner I've always felt has hung over my life, but the line from this poem, "You have a right to be here" is a quiet declaration to the contrary. Whenever I want my voice to be heard, or when I'm looking at something in the store and feel as though I have to move out of the way prematurely; I always think to myself, "you have a right to be here."
So it is brave of you to type this comment! Well done! You have been heard and I can relate
Well said. You’re not alone many in this world incl myself grew up feeling the same. But not all of us find the courage to speak our truth even quietly. For me I found I could start with saying I’m no less entitled or no less deserving than any other. That helped. Because the message I got from so many was the opposite. But once you realize it’s about them and we’re all victims of victims and a lot of suppressed pain in this world it changes our filter. Keep strong and taking up space. You’ll inspire others to speak their truth and do the same and part of a new better world. 🙏👏
Well said, thank you for sharing, praying for all the tender, humble soul's out there in the world right now, praying for the strength we so many of us need right now. God bless you for your honesty, you are awesome. 👍🙏😇❤💕
You most definitely have a right to be here, for you are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars! 🌟🌟🌟 shine bright! And thank you for sharing your truth so eloquently. I too can relate.
S.B. I indirectly relate to your comment thru a poem that is in Leo Buscaglia's book "Living. Loving. Learning". He describes a suicidal woman who wrote a poem before jumping off of a cliff (IF I am recalling correctly, as I am not sure because it's been decades). "...You thought that I was transparent & easily forgotten. Why then, did you try to use my lifetime to prove to yourself who you are."
When I was 16, my English teacher made our whole class memorize this piece by heart. Of course, we memorized it without full realization as to what the meaning is. Now that the adult life hit as if with a hammer, this makes so much sense and is a big source of wisdom which I'm hoping to remind myself of everyday. Thank you, TH-cam algorithm, Max Ehrmann and the channel :)
teachers are often underestimated
Now am 31 its now hitting me, same with sunscreen poem
ICSE must be praised to add this poem in our curriculum for
What a gift!
The best teachers are mentors - preparing us for obstacles that have not yet arrived - they are blessings in our lives
11 years ago, our 5th grade teacher instructed us to memorize this beauty. She passed away last month and it was so sad. I'll be always grateful of her for engraving this poem in my heart. This is the only poem I can commit to memory after all these years and it always reminds me that life is good when you let things be and place your feet on the ground.
The best poem ever. I knew it from I was about 16. I know it by heart. I'm approaching 70 years now. Be careful. Strive to be happy. !!
May she RIP. What a wise soul she was. She knew you guys would need that along your way. Cheers from Switzerland!
doubt you got a kickass rectengular prism ruler thought
Yes, very sweet, very true, how important these kinds of poems stick with us as children, and for the rest of our lives. God bless your teacher.
This poem presented itself just at the right time.
Randy Kunath System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities.....
1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can.
2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later.
3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most.
4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice.
5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life.
6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it.
7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success.
8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments.
9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences.
10, Always try to give more than you take.
Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you.
🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.
People are controlled by system why?
The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more.
Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)
😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression.

Randy Kunath 🏳️ Don’t trust anything fully 100%. If you do then your conscience won’t work fully. No one knows anything completely. One question leads to another then that question leads to another question so forth. Agnostic made the decision that we can’t know or we can know God, Atheist made the decision there is no God, Theist made the decision there is God, all are wrong. I am who I am as I am in my birthday. Source of creation is God. All depends on each other. We cannot separate anything from everything. Love your love everyday as much as you can. Live very meaningful life of joys then automatically you will share your joys with others. What you expect to do to you for happiness then do to others so you feel usefulness and gratitude to all. Only time truly you are ok when you are okay with everything. It doesn’t mean everything will stay the same forever. Everything will change. Do meditation or have sensory isolation tank experiences.

My english teacher gave everyone in my class a copy of this poem on the last day of school, before we finished high school (very abruptly in march last year), and I've still got it pinned up on my bedroom wall now. She was such a good teacher, and I hope I never forget her.
Mee tooo 💚💚💚 English trsnmmm
Wow same here
Me too
This is very beautiful. I feel that we are lacking the loving, protective voice of elders in our world today. Those who have neared the end of their journeys and have such things to say to us, but rarely do we hear them speak. I really enjoyed listening to this poem spoken by an elder, he has a voice like an ancient tree, very strong and resolute, but also gentle, loving and humble.
Just read your comments truly wonderful This poem I will save for all Timex So moving and beautiful x Stay Safe Friend! Kind regards from Scotland xx
Your description is perfect. I love this poem, but when I heard it read like that, in that voice, I was moved even more than I can explain.
Eloquent. Thank you.

@@brianmaher22 lol 💗😄
I had this poem in my bedroom as a kid, I bought it and loved it. I was a good kid, though few were kind and considerate. The years have proven
this poem very helpful to me. Every child ought to have this in their bedroom while growing up. It keeps one humane. 👍

I discovered this poem in my first year of college back in '81. It has remained one of my favorite guiding principles in life.
I Also had this hanging on my closet door as a teenager n over the years I've lost sight of its profound teachings ..as an adult I was so promiscuous .. But always kind n caring n now as I'm older it returns to haunt me .. I have loved life n given life n Taught life/Desiderata to my 5 son's ..I Am proud of this one accomplishment
I first read this at 20 and loved it, I wrote it down and shared it with many on my travels around the world. I had the wonderlust in those days. I am now nearly 50, and have not read or heard it since, and yet the words fell from my mind as easily as if I had heard it for the first time yesterday. It was just as relevant, more so perhaps, having lived through the summer of my life and easing into it's autumn. I now KNOW the meaning of this beautiful prose, and they are ever more profound, as I have lived them. Thank you for making this, it made me smile and brought back precious memories of days that have faded like autumn leaves.

I first read this poem well over 12 years ago. It was a very tough time for me. I typed it up and printed it out and carried it in my pocket. I shared it with others whilst in their hardships and I still quote sections of it today.
Thank You for spreading this.

My internship as a therapist was working for a school in Phoenix, AZ called “Desiderata.” The school was named after the poem, and all the kids had to learn it. It was an alternative school for kids with emotional and behavioral problems who couldn’t attend their regular schools. The poem is beautiful. And the school is doing amazing work with kids who desperately need it ❤️✨

I found this poem when I was a teenager after leaving the church and struggling to find my own path. It helped me to understand that virtue and morality are not exclusive to religion, and formed the foundation of my life's journey. 30 years later it still brings me to tears.
For anyone finding this poem today, listen carefully. There is tremendous wisdom in these words. 💜
I lost my father on the 21st of June 2023, this poem brings mixed emotions, and shows me the path forward now that my father is no longer here, for some of the lines are words he uttered to me often. Rest in Peace Dad, Rest in Peace - Dama Toane. 💔
my mother had this on a wall in a picture frame when i was a child😢 ... 30 years later here it is 🥰 you wouldn't believe the feelings of nostalgia i have right now 😱
"You are a child of the universe, no less than the tress and stars. You have a right to be here." A timeless poem written so beautifully. This is truly one of the best pieces I have read.

After a break up prison penniless and heartache I needed to hear this beautiful poem I will continue to strive and stay hungry its still a beautiful world and life is a gift thank you to anyone else going thru hard times ur worth it and I pray for you as so many have for me so I pay it forward and strive to try and make this world a better place before I leave

During my incarceration, I read this almost daily, and copied this 25 times for those that needed to have them in their lives.
It's helped me in a great many ways.
In the 70's I clipped this from a magazine.I carried it with me in my collection of poetry.I lost it in the 80's and have not seen it since. The poem is still as profound today as it was then.Thank you for the narration and words.
I have this framed in my living room. Had it for 50 years. I am now 70. So special . Says what my heart and soul tell me in a poem🙏❤️💕 To my daughters and Grandchildren! Nenee
Wow aunty...that's really very sweet small but very big difference u created by keeping peice not just a poem but a change in ur living room
As a child, my mother used to have my brother and I read this every morning as part of our daily routine. It has made a lasting impact on my life
My brother was shown this poem by my grandfather one summer while my brother lived with him and my grandmother in a small, Mexican fishing town - the Spanish version. This week, I’ve gone through adversity and learned a lot about myself. He showed it to me because of my situation. Tonight as I walk and look up at the sky while listening to this poem, it’s as if my grandfather relayed this poem to me thru time via my brother, and I felt a connection with him for the first time since he passed. Life is indeed beautiful.
This is what a lion would sound like if it could speak.

This poem is so beautiful and always makes me tear up a little. Especially the end, it really is such a beautiful world in spite of the evil that exists in it. 3 years ago, my time here almost expired. But I'm so happy I'm still here. Life is beautiful.
I've carried a copy of this poem around with me to my various offices over the past 25 years...pull it out when I need to put things into perspective.
@CocoLoco Whatwhat 🤔😂🤣👍
Hi. I have a picture on my wall that i love and have had for years. The cranky recital happening here is very disturbing to me. It sounds like doom instead of enlightenment.
I got in 1973 and know it by memory like a prayer. Is an awesome ideal to strive for.
Thank you for original post. I gave a copy to my cousin Eddie when he came to visit me 25 years ago. I typed it for him from the hanging on my wall because I had never seen him quite as moved m
by anything. He folded it neatly and placed it in his wallet. We lost him to cancer 8 years ago. His sister told me that he still had that in his wallet and had read it to the family one Thanksgiving Day. We loved each other dearly although work and time had separated us many miles apart by the time we were 30. I’ll soon be 60 and he had 7 years on me. Of course I think of him and smile every time I see or hear this poem. In memory of Eddie; the one who never married, decided to always look after his Mom, simply let every one wonder what his plans were, laughed and said he had no plans. Wherever Mom wants to go, he will drive. It’s the least he could do until something else happens. He did outlive her by a couple years or few. Now my memory is shot, so I can’t be exact. I’m sure they both preferred it that way, as I sure want my son to outlive me :)
OF COURSE I wish you many many years of long happy life ahead LoL! Had to edit that in, as your saving your copy is what touched my heart and the only part that reminded me of my cousin, how important this can be to we who understand it. Thank you again. Namaste’
His voice is EVERYTHING!!!!
"Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others , even the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons." Love it!
Thank you Max Ehrmann for saving my life, the words in this powerful poem are what keep me wanting to stay alive right now and hoping for things to get better. There is a glimmer of light through the gloom, this is a reminder of that

This poem reminds me of my late dad, Mariano, 🥺 and makes me feel very emotional when I hear it... Especially, the part that says "you are the child of the universe no less than the stars... You have a right to be here" and " strive to be happy"... He always used to tell me to be happy...
And it's been some year losing my dad.. my job due to the pandemic... It has been tough to keep balance.... 🥺 May his soul rest in eternal peace. Amen.
I read this as part of my grandmothers eulogy, today is her birthday and it appeared on my feed. Feels to be a poignant reminder.

How beautiful , she must have been a wonderful woman
I just came upon this reading. And then read your response and it move me. This has been a difficult year and I have suffered quite a few unexpected tragedies in life. I am now caring for my beloved mother who is not doing well, non-COVID-19 related. She is a almost 90 year old warrior and I love being there for her. Thank God I still have her in my life and that we live so close to one another. Bless you and keep your comments coming.

How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.
People are controlled by system why?
The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth.

Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)
😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited. 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression.

"In the noisy confusion of life keep peace in your soul"
☯️🙏🏾👌🏾☮️ Such a beautiful poem! printed this out 15yrs ago n still one of my go to mantras ❤️💯 - peace to one an all ✌🏾
My mother had this hanging in her office and the house growing up as long as I can remember. As a person whom has looked at and read this daily for his entire life as an Empath, I must say I wouldn't be the same had it not been in my life as such. She knew what she was doing that's for sure.
Your mom sounds like a beautiful soul ❤
This was my grandfather's favorite poem so we had it printed & framed and gave it to my dad, who hung it in his office. My dad died less than two years after his father so now the poem sits beside his photo. I try to read it often and feel it in my heart.
OMG!! These poems reveal how smart and awesome my teacher was! She taught us all of them and I remember them 40 years later!👏🏽
I’ve memorized this poem from high school subject, I didn’t know the deep meaning of this until I became a mom of 2 this sums up my realizations and learnings in life.
“Don’t compare yourself with anybody else for always there will be greater and lesser person than you.”
I am having some difficult days with school pressure, mom's constant nagging and lectures that makes me sad about myself but seeing this has really made me feel much better.
Thank you Desiderata 😭
I'm pretty much in the exact situation as you. Hopefully we'll put these days behind us soon.
Stay Positive and Strong!!! God Bless You!!🙏🌟💖🇬🇧
"Take kindly the counsel of years.
Gracefully surrendering the things of youth" 💯💯👌🔥🔥🔥
I am 27.
I am gonna keep this poem forever.
Me neither 🤲
Nice inspiration
I did so since the ‘70’s! Read my comment!
I have and it has served me well, child of the universe, go well.
@@Elizabeth-gz4kc awww I felt this.
It always amazes me how quickly the answers come when you really need them to. Thank you.
it's funny how the universe works

Hi Joanie...How are you today?
@@jamesgrey4502 I’m doing well. Send me some good/lucky vibes. Celebrating a friends bday in AC.
You can tell where you’re broken because that piece of the poem will bring tears to your eyes unexpectedly. It did for me. ❤
Yes so very true!!!!
❤
I was given this by my husband in 1983 I was 43 at the time I am now 80 it has hung in my kitchen all these years it does good to read it once a day and you'll be happy ♡ believe me ♡ Best gift ever, thank you Joe♡
Memorable
Hello Valerie,how are you doing ?
Hi friend good morning☀ how are you doing over there i I'm sure you must be doing great and hope my little 'Hi' can put smile on your face😊
God Bless You!! Stay Positive and Strong!!! Love and Respect!!🙏🌟💖🇬🇧
My father give me this little note with "Desiderata" written on it when I turned 18, now I'm 32, I still carry this note in my wallet.
That's very nice and sweet gesture towards ur dad's feeling...
Aw that's sweet
Bless your heart
A very wise dad.

I had this poem tacked to cork board on my bedroom wall when I was a teen. It really meant something to me. Hearing it just now, having just turned 59, it struck me that back as a teen, this poem embodied the qualities of the person I wanted to be.
How did you do with "Desiderata" on your back burner all these years? I'll wager you've become a person worth knowing.
I came across this song and poem when I was in Middle School Form 3 in 1968 and fell in love with it and it has been the light in my path in this journey of life .
"With all its sham, drudgery and broken
dreams, it is still a beautiful world..
Be cheerful..
Strive to be happy."
Such a motivational poem with enlightening life lessons!
Envisioning an ideal world where everything is hunky-dory is like living in a fool's paradise. The real world is run-of-the-mill.. ugly.. harsh.. scheming..hypocritical..heartless.. gloomy and yet welcoming n marvellous. It is our own approach to living..of being our own selves in the face of adversities n our responses to them.. that make all the difference..
WONDERFUL
@@MohitSingh-ij5vq Thanks!🙏
Amen To That!! Love And Respect!!🙏🌟💖🇬🇧

Mom had this poster on her hospital wall. She died when I was 16. I haven’t read this in 41 yrs😢
She's out there watching over you.
Telling you "Strive to be happy"
Hi Judy...How are you today?
🙏💢💯🕊️🕊️🕊️
I am really sad for your lost at search a young age
I was required to memorize this in highschool some 50 years ago. I still remember it and refer back to it when my life requires.
My favorite line...you are a child of the universe...no less than the trees, & the stars...you have a right to be here...this has guided me for 40+years...like CREATION throwing me a lifeline. I've used that lifeline to help others whose self-esteem has been damaged by the dysfunctional people in their lives. If you have a narcissist in your life...you know what I mean...so go placidly through the noise, & haste...be yourself, be free.
I have had this poem framed on my wall for a long time. Yet hearing it read out loud made my hair stand. The power of the spoken word surely trumps the sword.
I cried when I heard this in the moment of my deepest despair These very words gave me the strength to fly
"Those who forgive themselves, and are able to accept their true nature... They are the strong ones!" - Uchiha Itachi

This was one of Moms most favorites. She gave it printed to others.
She passed Tuesday and this showed up in my feed.
I'll miss and mourn her for the rest of my life.
April 2020:
“You are a child of the Universe.
You have a right to be here.
Keep peace in your soul.
Is still a beautiful world.
Therefore be at peace with God”
💚♥️💚♥️💚
AMAZING
Always.Never forget the beauty of your life, and everything that surrounds you.
And suddenly tears welled up ..
DR 88888888, wow, you really uglified this gorgeous piece of literature!
Lisa Hinton
1st it’s not DR... But DE.
2nd, I don’t know that word: “uglified” but if it comes from ugly, then it’s your point of view.
If you see something ugly...I cannot change it, you have to change the way you see it by yourself, in order to see the beauty in general, or, you can turn your head, and watch something else, on the other side...
In any case, enjoy your life, love and be loved.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
I disagree to this when I was younger, but now at this age, I crave the company of serene people.
The writer did not say "everything is 100 percent accurate" but so close or not far from the point. Every line in this poem is like words of God Himself.
Nature Skitter, I feel the same. I'm old now, I simply want to reflect and enjoy life and all that that entails. Quietly.
Learn poem this at age 12. Taught it to my children. It is my manual for a graceful, cheerful and grateful life. It inspired me to be a better poet. Grateful.
My mother passed away on Aug 1st, 20.. don't know how this came on my feed, but I definitely appreciate it.
Im sorry about the loss of your mother. May your heart be at peace.
TheRds797 may she rest in peace, this poem is heavenly and was also used in church sermons. Les Cranes narration won Grammy for Best Spoken Word Recording of 1971. Poem has facinating story behind. you can listen musical version at th-cam.com/video/1uVeilqHWZ4/w-d-xo.html on my page and read full details in my blog.
Im sorry about your loss... i lost my mom 2 years ago
TheRds797 System is the problem 🏡 Our Life should be around these Great Qualities.....
1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can.
2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later.
3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most.
4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice.
5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life.
6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it.
7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success.
8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments.
9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences.
10, Always try to give more than you take.
Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you.
🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.

In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression.

I keep coming back to this poem hundreds of times to make sure I didn't miss anything, and always discover some new wisdom.
Inspiration
I was a troubled child, 14 years old and doing everything a 14 year old shouldn't be doing. One day my physics teacher had enough of my misbehaviour in class, and handed me desiderata on a piece of paper and told me I had to write it down as a punishment exercise, so I did. Over the coming weeks I got given this exercise several times, to the point I could write it without looking at the paper. Now 20 years later I often read it back and realize how it has shaped me as a man, a father and a kind human being who strives to get along, help others and act with integrity. Thank you Mr Gray.
We have had a print of this hanging in our home for 40 years now. The first time I saw it was when I met my wife. it was hanging on the wall in her Apartment. She had me read it out loud ad it moved me to tears. It might be the she decided to marry me after that!
This is the most beautiful story. Thank you for sharing these precious memories, beautiful ❤
