SERENITY...
Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. A man becomes calm in the measure that he understands himself as a thought-evolved being...and he as he develops a right understanding, and sees more and more clearly the internal relations of things by the action of cause and effect, he ceases to fret and fume, and worry and grieve, and remains poised, steadfast, serene.
"Excerpt Morning and Evening Thoughts ..James Allen"
"One Saturday in the park, Adysin who was up to her usual tricks of intentional falling in public, happened to come across an interesting stranger who actually approached... to help her up. She tripped a lot on purpose because she really enjoyed meeting people who cared. People who cared enough to stop what they were doing in their busy lives long enough to give her a hand.
This day was special because the person she met was anything but ordinary. There was a serene look on his face, and when she reached up to take his hand..visions of peace filled her being. She could see birds, blue skies, the scent of beautiful flowers surrounded her and she could feel love for herself and love for everyone around her, all in that brief moment of contact. She had never before felt such peace in her life. The wind picked up just as she stood to her feet and just like that...he was gone.
But he left something behind..."Peace". Adysin still had it and to see and feel it again she need only to remember what that moment was like, his beautiful face forever etched into her mind. She must find him, again."
Excerpt: "SIN" by Mara Carr
"Be as a flower; content to be, to grow in sweetness day by day. If thou would’st perfect thyself in knowledge, perfect thyself in Love. If thou would’st reach the Highest, ceaselessly cultivate a loving and compassionate heart.
To him who chooses Goodness, sacrificing all, is given that which is more than, and includes, all."
