some poetry
Desiderata

1927 Max Erhmann

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 the ignorant;
they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive 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 yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise 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 everywhere 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 as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding 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 a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.
here is a large list

Things I'm Impatient About Lately And Have Subsequently Been Acting Like A Bastard Because Of:

By David Shaffer

- I miss my girlfriend
- My car's stereo is broken
- My car's electric is somewhat frizzling
- It also makes this annoying rattle when the roads are hot
- Both of my guitars are out of commission
- One of them is getting fixed in a few days
- The other, I don't even know about
- So I have all this music in my head
- And nowhere for it to go
- I got a haircut and the girl cut it too short even though I reminded her not to
- I want to finish The Razor's Edge
- I got a $105 ticket for "(dis)obedience to a traffic control device" (I rolling-stopped a stop sign a block away from my house at 1:45 am and the cop had to fill his quota), and the cop told me that if I plead not guilty to it, he had the option of withdrawing that offense and writing me up for running a stop sign instead, giving me points on my license. So you know what? Because that fucker threatened me and was a total dick, I'm gonna plead not guilty. My ass if I'm going to let a cop strong-arm me into paying a ridiculous fine for a ridiculously mild offense.
- I don't feel like I've been doing a whole lot at work lately
- Seriously, I spend more time going and coming back from work than I do actually doing anything during any given day
- Thus, I don't feel like I have enough free time to get anything accomplished while I'm at home
- And I feel like I have so much I want to get done that relaxing or meditating or something seems almost like a waste of perfectly good time
- Time that I would probably otherwise spend fretting about what I want to do
- It's a vicious circle
- I suppose I will find the Zen of it soon
- I put on a lot of weight at school this year and I don't like how it makes me look. I have always been tall, but I liked being tall and thin
- Every one of my weekends until school starts is filled, pretty much, and I have band camp I have to do which I'm not looking forward to
- Also, since all my weekends are filled, that means I might not get up to see Dave Fisher, or down to see Chicken, or up to see my dad and Heidi. Though that may have a fix in the works
- I keep falling asleep in my contacts and I'm sure it's scratched my eyes and I really want to fix it but I don't have any glasses that I can wear for a few days to do that
- Sarah keeps bringing movies over and I keep meaning to watch them

I guess that's all for now.
