Think, Be, Listen ... (for 'by invitation only')
As part of an international group of bloggers to post once a month, this being the first post for ...
... we were given, as inspiration for our posts, the following poem by William Henry Channing.
"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 and birds, to babes and sages,
with open heart, to bear all cheerfully,
to 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."
