Simple Sundays

I have always loved Samuel Barber’s Adagio for Strings.  I stumbled over this recording on YouTube that has the words to Max Ehrmann’s famous Desiderata set to this beautiful piece of music.  The Desiderata shares timely advice for living a full, happy life.  Written in 1927, the poem did not gain popularity until it was recorded in the 1970’s and heard by millions.  The words are timeless, the message complete.  Take a moment of silence to listen and read this beautiful work of music and prose.  Wishing you a peaceful day….today, and always.
