We have a special show this week. I’ve always have loved the poem Desiderata and thought it would be of value to the NLS Tribe.

Found in Old Saint Paul’s Church – Baltimore

In 1927 American writer Max Ehrmann (1872–1945) wrote the prose poem Desiderata, which was first published in The Poems of Max Ehrmann in 1948. In 1956, the Reverend Frederick Kates, rector of Saint Paul’s Church in Baltimore, Maryland, included Desiderata in a compilation of devotional materials for his congregation. The compilation included the church’s foundation date: “Old Saint Paul’s Church, Baltimore AD 1692”. Consequently, the date of the text’s authorship was (and still is) widely mistaken as 1692, the year of the church’s foundation. – Wikipedia

I hope reading or listening to Desiderata brought a bit of light and hope to your journey. Be well.
