A Great Quote from a Reader Today

This was sent to us from a reader:


"I am from India . Sensei has quoted this from a poem written by Walt Whitman in the latest Value Creation, a monthly magazine - Just loved it and it gave me lots of strength - thought will share this with you immediately." 


Afoot and light hearted I take to the open road, 

healthy, 
free, 
the world before me.
Henceforth I ask not good fortune,

I myself am good-fortune,
Henceforth I whimper no more, 

postpone no more, 
need nothing,
Done with indoor complaints, 

libraries, 
querulous criticisms,
Strong and content I travel the open road
