Do you remember The Desiderata? For a while everyone had a poster of that. Go placidly amid the noise and haste and remember what peace there may be in silence. That's all I remember.
You're welcome for the list. The rain you'll have to thank someone else for. It isn't in my job description here.  |
I do remember The Desiderata. When I think of it I see footsteps in the sand. That must have been on the poster.
And what about Kipling's "If"? Great poem.
Speaking of Kipling, my father was a fan and thus I am, too. I remember asking him to read "Rikki Tikki Tavi" over and over. I love that mongoose.
Dad flew The Hump (also known as CBI) during WWII. China-Burma-India. He spent time in India. He had some stories to tell. Cobras on the golf course with no Rikki to be seen.
