“Remaining calm in adversity is a sign of great spiritual strength. No matter what's going on in your life right now, "Hold your peace!"”
The world can seem chaotic, often times, constant change,
and having a set compass point in the mind helps one to glide through life’s
challenges—becoming a serene bubble in the midst of tumult and disorder.
Decide your values.
Get to know yourself.
Access your own inner wisdom.
Having an “unshakeable core” means you know who you are, and
of the shifting tides of emotion, you can realign as necessary:
--you know what determines your own happiness.
After clarifying, process comes into play:
--a cycle of focus to keep yourself motivated.
--adaptability, sailing on instead of sinking or being
dashed against the shore rocks.
Mitigating factors of varying intensity for some folks are Faith,
Nature and Self Expression. Each
represents disciplines that observe diligence to both self and cosmos. Philosophy, religion, and art bring us closer
to the Ancient “Music” of contemplation.
Remember: eudaimonia or tranquility is as much about balance
as it is suppression.
Even a monolith knows that ‘holding your peace’ is as much ‘finding your peace’, which might require taking part in life’s symphony, in which the crescendos and the silences alike are welcomed.
