Keep Calm



In moments of stress,
try to think about beautiful
things which are calm and peaceful.

I must keep calm and unmoved
In the vicissitudes of life.
I must go backinto the silence
of communion with God to recover
this calm when it is lost even
for one moment.

I will accomplish more by this calmness
than by all the activities of a long day.
AT ALL COST I WILL KEEP CALM.
I can solve nothing when I am agitated.
I should keep away from those things
that are upsetting emotionally.

I should run on an even keel and not get
tipped over by emotional upsets.
I should seek for things that are calm
and good and true and stick to these things.

"I pray that I may not argue or contend
but merely state calmly what I believe
to be true.
I pray that I may keep in that state of
calmness that comes in faith in
God's purpose for the world."

If you cannot find the time to stop
and smell the fragrance of a flower.
If you are in such a rush that you
cannot pause and listen to the song
of a bird.

If your life is so full that you cannot
rest awhile and hear the ripple of a stream.
If life is such a burden that you cannot
hear the beauty in a newborn baby's cry.
Then, dear friend, you have not found time to live.
For it is in such things as these you will
find the true meaning of life in all its
glory and splendor.
