The pursuit, even of the best things, ought to be calm and tranquil.
Serenity is not freedom from the storm, but peace amid the storm.
Do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace.

Serenity comes when you trade expectations for acceptance.
In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you.
Serenity is not the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope with it.
The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another.
