It is hoped that you, who have lived for many years, will especially enjoy them. Desiderata Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.

She spoke of her work in the Peace Corps with under privileged people and the gen eral life style of different tribes in India. persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than your self. Enjoy your achieve ments as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the chang ing fortunes of time. Exer cise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and every where life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is peren nial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrend ering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfor tune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears arc born of fa tigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome disipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the uni verse, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And wheth er or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfold ing as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul; With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still 3-beautiful world. Be care ful. Strive to be happy. It is quite the popular thing these days to have poor health; it can be very con venient.
