Wellness for Peace: Peace Guideline to protect your self and relationship to others: 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.
Listen to others, even the dull and ignorant, they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons they are vexation to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser person than your self.
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 you self.
Especially, do not feign affection; neither, be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is perennial as a grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you from 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.
You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and stars, you have the 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, & whatever your labors & aspirations.
In the noisy confusion of life, keep peace within your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery & broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
Be careful. Strive to be happy.
