Kipling’s poem “IF” for Today’s World
If our bodies are what we eat, then our hearts and souls are what we watch, listen and read.
Rudyard Kipling’s poem “IF” has inspired millions of hearts and souls (including mine), capturing the ideal of human character in just 32 short lines. Our ideals make us who we are, which is why this poem should be shouted from every rooftop, and absorbed by our senses in every possible way. I did my part by turning poem “If” into the song; others did theirs by turning the song into this video:
I believe that if everyone embraced and taught the ideals of Kipling’s “If” to their kids, our world would be a better place. If you believe it, too – please pass this on.
