“I'm in love with peace of mind, and married to composure.”
by Innocent Mwatsikesimbe — from The Vision, chapter 62
In other words
Peace of mind can be treated as something pleasant to enjoy when conditions allow. Being married to composure gives it a stronger place: a commitment kept even when other people invite conflict.
Arguments create waves that last beyond the words. They disturb thought, steal working time, and allow another person’s anger to decide the inner climate.
Composure does not require accepting abuse or never speaking firmly. It means refusing needless conflict and putting out the part of the fire that has entered one’s own space. The loyalty is to a mind able to think, work, and remain itself. Peace becomes not a mood supplied by others, but a way of meeting them.
