exude equanimity

Equanimity: the ability to remain calm and relaxed in the face of strong feelings
A sense of composure

“Expanding perspective enough to fully understand the nature of the conflict, not matter how painful.”

... but not just for the sake of it. i would like to possess equanimity, also. i don’t mean in terms of being detached and uneffected by events, but in terms of being capable of accepting all things secure in the knowledge that i can cope with the world as it is, not as i wish it would be. i think that anybody who is incapable of this is going to have a very difficult and frustrating life. i realise that this sounds apathetic, and i don’t advocate unquestioning acceptance of the unacceptable on the grounds that things are as they are and one cannot make a difference, or that things are the way they are for a reason, only that while one does what one can to change the world for the better, one can accept that things may not go entirely to plan. a bit like that sentence which was really, incredibly long. oh dear. well, nevermind!
