Calm is the key to the Soul


When the world is restless, and the restless beat the drum, the calm man is the eye of that eternal hurricane. When work is a dance of confusion, and emotions, blind as lemmings, drive for unconsidered goals, the calm man observes from his oasis. When the business of family flares, and love gropes in the fog of displeasure, the clam man is the light that guides love to unity. When man is tested, and his being feels like an open wound, the calm man sees his imperfections and removes them like a skilled surgeon. - Unknown

Those who are on the path to being calm, the path of introspection, know intimately the sobering fact that calm men are rare today, as they ever have been in the past, and probably will be in the future. But those on the path know that a person does not have to be a hundred percent calm in order to taste peace profound. Yet one taste of that divine essence and that person strives ever more to be that calm man. - Unknown
