Inspirational Guidance series

The full Desiderata by Max Ehrmann: Go placidly amidst the noise and haste... With an inspiring colour image showing the spectacular star-forming region, the Eagle Nebula (Messier 16, or NGC 6611). At the centre, the so-called “Pillars of Creation” can be seen.

The poem has inspired young adults who are coming of age since the 1920's and is as popular today as it ever was. It's been given as a gift by loving parents, grandparents, godparents and aunts and uncles as essential life-wisdom ever since it was written.

They've found it to be one of the few ways for such wisdom to get past those raging hormones, giving support to the upcoming generation through their rebellious years and beyond...
