“In calmness of mind is greatness.”
by Innocent Mwatsikesimbe — from This Is My Life, chapter 3
In other words
A calm mind is not one that has never known trouble. It may be a place rebuilt after painful thoughts, hurtful people, and too much concern about what others think. Peace grows through deciding what is allowed to remain inside. Old harm can still be part of the history without continuing to rule the present. The ruins exist, but they no longer fill every street.
Greatness in this calm is not power over other people. It is freedom from the inner disorder they once caused. A mind at peace can think clearly, protect what is good, and remain its own place instead of giving every hostile visitor a permanent home.
