\stuff{-3pt} Go placidly among 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. \stuff{-6pt} 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. \stuff{-1pt} 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. \stuff{-1pt} Be yourself.  Especially, do
not feign affection.  Neither be cynical about love, for in the face
of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.
\stuff{4pt} Take kindly to 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
imaginings.  Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.  Beyond a
wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. \stuff{0pt} 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. \stuff{4pt} 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. \stuff{3pt} With all its sham, drudgery and broken
dreams, it is still a beautiful world.  Be careful.  Strive to be
happy.
