Today’s poem for June 9, 2026, is "If—" by Rudyard Kipling. If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you; if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their doubting too; if you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or being lied about, do not deal in lies, or being hated, do not give way to hating, and yet do not look too good, nor talk too wise. This poem endures because it turns strength into discipline, and discipline into mercy.
