About this listen
Max Ehrmann’s Desiderata is a gentle manifesto for the human spirit, written with the clarity of wisdom that comes not from abstraction but from lived experience. First published in 1927, the poem speaks in a calm, almost parental voice, guiding the listener toward a life of quiet dignity amid the disorder of the modern world. Its opening injunction—“Go placidly amid the noise and haste”—establishes both its tone and its philosophy: serenity is not the absence of chaos, but a way of moving through it.
