Love this, your reading was lovely. I have this poem hanging on my wall. I bought it in college when I was in a deep depression and it has always brought me comfort. I cried listening to you read it just now, but happy tears 🩷

So profound. So many lines resonated in new ways for me. I’m grateful my curiosity led me here.

Thank you for this piece of eternal wisdom. Namaste

Beautifully
rendered Sarah.
Desiderata has been a touchstone
in my life for decades. Written in 1927
it continues to resound for me
in these challenging days of 2025.
Hiw did it find you?
I first received it in the form of a beautiful
card from a dear friend who found the card in her deceased Mothers estate and gifted it to me.
Namaste
