+1. Love it! The beginning to Ken Burns Baseball - First Inning. Whenever I've had a stressful day at work, I throw that DVD in and it always relaxes me!!

Desiderata

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.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
