Of tranquility

I have been having this itch to write....Two days' long worth of an itch. Every time I started to write, I felt like writing about tranquility. Maybe it is influenced by the tranquility here at Hotel White Sands- The Beach Resort, or the demeanour and kindness of the people of Dar es salam, or maybe just a divine intervention.
Anyhow, it got me to reading what others have said on the subject, and I got the following, which I am happy to share. It is something I truly believe, for those who know me, and my fidelity to #Desiderata.
“Our life depends on the kind of thoughts we nurture. If our thoughts are peaceful, calm, meek, and kind, then that is what our life is like. If our attention is turned to the circumstances in which we live, we are drawn into a whirlpool of thoughts and can have neither peace nor tranquility.”
― Elder Thaddeus of Vitovnica, Our Thoughts Determine Our Lives: The Life and Teachings of Elder Thaddeus of Vitovnica
