To me, serenity means remaining calm and true to yourself, regardless of what else is going on. This was inspired by an exhibit that I observed recently. The butterflies paid no mind to the crowds and went about their business. Or perhaps inspired by theologian Reinhold Niebuhr's prayer.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next. Amen.
