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 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.

Nothing much has been happening to me all week besides reading Moony fanfics for 2 hours a day. Its such a bore actually, not the fanfics, mind you. That's one of the things that has been keeping my mind busy this week and not to forget all our schoolwork our teachers been giving us. Thank God for our study periods...but they wouldnt been there in the first place without implenting that stupid Houses. I guess I would be well off with our old schedules with less subjects and less homework. I wouldnt mind doing homework at home than feeling so tired at the end of the day with nothing to look forward to but more homework and my comfortable bed. Give me algebra homework anyday!!

Ive been going through a friend's journal to pass time and to think of what to type here...and I still dont want to put my mind into thinking about projects to be passed next week...well let's not dwell on this topic....

moving on...I forgot to mention that Ive been having a tough sweaty week...actually at home. I sort of lent my electric fan to my brother some time last week... and when I asked him to return it to its proper place...its head is definitely NOT in its proper place! The head [that's what i want to call the circular thingy - dont mind me] is not connected to the...uh...neck? The only thing that is connecting the head to the neck is the wires that allows it to uh...work. So Ive been using the chair as some sort of support so that i could still use it properly...then after some days...it died on me...The stupid thing died on me! It didnt even think that its death will cause me terrible, horrible pain and discomfort! It didnt even thought of the consequences of leaving me all alone hurting. With nothing but the blow of the still wind.

*chuckles to self* hehehe
