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.

Damn. Im having a difficult time in keeping track of the day. And sleeping early... late if you prefer... is definitely not helping me one bit! I should really revert to my normal.. if not normal, my usual sleeping habit. Its driving me insane! Strangely enough, it is. Maybe a few minutes here will be enough. Thought you would like to know what happened to me for most of the time.

I assumed that even I slept late last night.. or rather hours ago.. I still be able to at least wake up at around noon. It seemed that my body needed the rest more rather than my mind, so I woke up 2 hours after I assumed it will be. Again, I went straight to my room and opened this computer and continued reading what was left of the fanfic. I just finished it a few minutes ago. So I guess you can presume how long the fanfic actually is given the fact that Ive been reading that for at least 2-3 days already. And I do not take long breaks in between my reading, mind you.

I guess that's it. Im hoping that our previous plan will be taken into action. Hopefully, Krisel can drop by tomorrow to be able to stuff our dissected frog.
