Calm, Cool, and Collected...

F E A R...

"No passion 
so effectually robs the mind 
of all its powers
of acting and reasoning 
as fear."
~Edmund Burke

******

Fear is just an emotion 

that is designed to protect us 

from a perceived threat, 

in order to help us 

make the best decisions 

to preserve our life and safety.


Overcoming fears 
that keep us from living our life are 
achievable goals.

~Kim Franklin-Magana

All tangled up?


When life gets all tangled up and confusing, 

that's the time to slow down, 

sit down, 

and work out the knots.

Calm...


Calm during the storm.


Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn't people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them?


~Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy



Mrs. Kennedy rarely talked publicly about her personal grief. But once she remarked to a friend: "Wasn't there a book about Michelangelo called 'The Agony and the Ecstasy'? That's what my life has been."

an adventure 
wrongly considered.”

Bitterness vs. Anger




Bitterness is like cancer.

It eats upon the host

But anger is like fire

It burns it all clean.

Tranquility...


The more tranquil a man becomes, 
the greater is his success, 
his influence, 
his power for good.


Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom.
