<p class="poetry">What is right living? Just to do your
best<br/>
When worst seems easier. To bear the ills<br/>
Of daily life with patient cheerfulness<br/>
Nor waste dear time recounting them.<br/>
To talk<br/>
Of hopeful things when doubt is in the air.<br/>
To count your blessings often, giving thanks,<br/>
And to accept your sorrows silently,<br/>
Nor question why you suffer. To accept<br/>
The whole of life as one perfected plan,<br/>
And welcome each event as part of it.<br/>
To work, and love your work; to trust, to pray<br/>
For larger usefulness and clearer sight.<br/>
This is right living, pleasing in God’s eyes,<br/>
Though you be heathen, heretic or Jew.</p>
