This short piece of writing is dedicated to all you leaplings – “You’re Special” . To live content with small means. To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion. To be worthy not respectable, and wealthy not rich. To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars, birds, babes, and sages with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony. - William Ellery Channing Technorati Tags: small poem , motivational poems , inspirational poem , inspirational writing , symphony of life , william ellery chenning , balance of life , wishes in life , ellery chenning , american literature
