be in silence.\\ +As far as possible without surrender\\ +be on good terms with all persons.\\ +Speak your truth quietly and clearly;\\ +and listen to others,\\ +even the dull and the ignorant;\\ +they too have their story. + +Avoid loud and aggressive persons,\\ +they are vexations to the spirit.\\ +If you compare yourself with others,\\ +you may become vain and bitter;\\ +for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.\\ +Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. + +Keep interested in your own career, however humble;\\ +it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.\\ +Exercise caution in your business affairs;\\ +for the world is full of trickery.\\ +But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;\\ +many persons strive for high ideals;\\ +and everywhere life is full of heroism. + +Be yourself.\\ +Especially, do not feign affection.\\ +Neither be cynical about love;\\ +for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment\\ +it is as perennial as the grass. + +Take kindly the counsel of the years,\\ +gracefully surrendering the things of youth.\\ +Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.\\ +But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.\\ +Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.\\ +Beyond a wholesome discipline,\\ +be gentle with yourself. + +You are a child of the universe,\\ +no less than the trees and the stars;\\ +you have a right to be here.\\ +And whether or not it is clear to you,\\ +no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. + +Therefore be at peace with God,\\ +whatever you conceive Him to be,\\ +and whatever your labors and aspirations,\\ +in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. + +With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,\\ +it is still a beautiful world.\\ +Be cheerful.\\ +Strive to be happy. +\end{verse} +\end{document} + diff --git a/desiderata_minibook_de.tex b/desiderata_minibook_de.tex new file mode 100644 index

von Lärm und Hast\\ +und denke an den Frieden der Stille. + +So weit als möglich, ohne dich aufzugeben,\\ +sei auf gutem Fuß mit jedermann.\\ +Sprich deine Wahrheit ruhig und klar aus,\\ +und höre Andere an,\\ +auch wenn sie langweilig und unwissend sind,\\ +denn auch sie haben an ihrem Schicksal zu tragen.\\ +Meide die Lauten und Streitsüchtigen.\\ +Sie verwirren den Geist. + +Vergleichst du dich mit anderen,\\ +kannst du hochmütig oder verbittert werden,\\ +denn immer wird es Menschen geben,\\ +die bedeutender oder schwächer sind als du.\\ +Erfreue dich am Erreichten und an deinen Plänen.\\ +Bemühe dich um deinen eigenen Werdegang,\\ +wie bescheiden er auch sein mag;\\ +er ist ein fester Besitz im Wandel der Zeit. + +Sei vorsichtig bei deinen Geschäften,\\ +denn die Welt ist voller Betrügerei.\\ +Aber lass deswegen das Gute nicht aus den Augen,\\ +denn Tugend ist auch vorhanden:\\ +Viele streben nach Idealen,\\ +und Helden gibt es überall im Leben. + +Sei du selbst.\\ +Täusche vor allem keine falschen Gefühle vor.\\ +Sei auch nicht zynisch, wenn es um Liebe geht,\\ +denn trotz aller Öde und Enttäuschung verdorrt sie nicht,\\ +sondern wächst weiter wie Gras. + +Höre freundlich auf den Ratschlag des Alters,\\ +und verzichte mit Anmut auf die Dinge der Jugend.\\ +Stärke die Kräfte deines Geistes,\\ +um dich bei plötzlichem Unglück dadurch zu schützen.\\ +Quäle dich nicht mit Wahnbildern.\\ +Viele Ängste kommen aus Erschöpfung und Einsamkeit.\\ +Bei aller angemessenen Disziplin,\\ +sei freundlich zu dir selbst.\\ +Genau wie die Bäume und Sterne,\\ +so bist auch du ein Kind des Universums.\\ +Du hast ein Recht auf deine Existenz. + +Und ob du es verstehst oder nicht,\\ +entfaltet sich die Welt so wie sie soll.\\ +Bleibe also in Frieden mit Gott,\\ +was immer er für dich bedeutet,\\ +und was immer deine Sehnsüchte und Mühen\\ +in der lärmenden Verworrenheit des Lebens seien –\\ +bewahre den Frieden in deiner Seele.\\ +Bei allen Täuschungen, Plackereien und zerronnenen Träumen\\ +ist es dennoch eine schöne Welt. + +Sei frohgemut. Strebe danach glücklich zu sein. +\end{verse} +\end{document} + |
