The Absolute and perfect game plan for life poem. What more is there to possibly say, except thank you Max Ehrmann and sleep well sir. Sleep well.
If there was no Lord's Prayer in our schools, then Max Ehrmann's beautiful inspiring 1920's poem should be there in its place. A one of its kind unique poem. I thank you so much Max Ehrmann.
It is good advice for life especially in dark times. It helps lightening up your Soul and helps you find your middle. My parents gave me this because i was having a bad time. it helped and i will Show this to my Children and hope it will help them as much as it helped me. I personnaly think this is one of the best works i've ever read. It deserves credit.
This will always be the poem I retreat to, to seek hope and solace from. It's my moral stronghold, my last poetry resting place, my rock. It recharges my depleted lifeforce batteries and always nourishes and instils in me hope. It is simply magnificent. Thank you Max Ehrmann.
