Inspirational Quote:
Calm in quietude is not real calm. 
When you can be calm in the midst of activity,
this is the true state of nature.
Happiness in comfort is not real happiness.
 When you can be happy in the midst of hardship,
then you see the true potential of the mind.

Inspirational Challenge:
Acknowledge if you are in the "What if or When" mind set. 
We can't wait to be happy.  Today is all we have.
