One jewel of wisdom is calmness of mind. Calmness of mind is the result of long effort in self control, ripened experience, and knowledge of the universal laws. The great majority of people do ruin their lives and mar their happiness by lack of self-control. Only a few people we meet in life are well-balanced, who have that exquisite poise which is characteristic of the finished character.

Serenity

Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. It is the result of long and patient effort in self-control. Its presence is an indication of ripened experience, and of a more than ordinary knowledge of the laws and operations of thought.
