《幸福所必需》
在喧嚣和奔忙的世界中平静地向前走，记住沉默里也许带有安宁。尽可能地与人为善，但也无须卑躬屈膝。心平气和地说出你的真意，并且耐心聆听别人。即便那些愚钝又无知的人，他们也有自己的故事。
要远远避开那些吵闹、寻衅之人，他们会扰人心神。如果你将自己与他人作比，那么你将变得自负抑或痛苦，因为这世上永远存在比你强和弱于你的人。
享受你的成就和蓝图，保持对事业的兴趣。不管从事的工作多么细琐、卑下，都是你在变化多端的时代能真正拥有的财产。
生意场上要谨言慎行，世上到处都有阴谋和欺骗。但也不要因此对美德视而不见；世上很多人为了崇高的理想而奋发努力，生活中到处都有英雄精神存在。
做你自己，尤其不要虚情假意。对爱情不要玩世不恭，在这干旱、没有希望的土地上，爱是一片四季常青的绿洲。
要认真汲取似水年华的经验，从容地向青春时光告别。要培养自己的精神力量，以抗击突如其来的不幸和打击。但千万不要用想象使自己苦恼、忧伤，很多恐惧产生于疲惫与孤独。
这些有益身心的原则之外，还要善待自己。你和树林、星星一样，都是这茫茫宇宙的一份子，你有权利生活在这里。
无论你是否明白，这世界已经完全为你打开。所以你要与上帝和平相处，不论你认为他身在何方。也不论你有何种努力或渴望，在喧闹、迷乱的人世中，保持灵魂平静如水。尽管有很多虚假、坎坷、破碎的梦，这仍是一个美好的世界。你要满怀欣喜，努力去追求自己的幸福吧。 Desiderata Go placidly amid the noise and haste,and remember what peace there may be in silence.As far as possible without surrenderbe 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 or 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 disenchantmentit 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.
