RIGHT LIVING

What is right living? Just to do your best

When worst seems easiest. To bear the ills

Of daily life with patient cheerfulness,

Nor waste dear time recounting them. To talk

Of hopeful things when doubt is in the air.

To count your blessings often, giving thanks,

And to accept your sorrows silently,

Nor question why you suffer. To accept

The whole of life as one perfected plan,
