Good counsel for the work of God

Are you upset? Look: happen what may in your interior life and in the world around you, never forget that the importance of events or of people is very relative. Take things calmly. Let time pass. And then, as you view persons and events dispassionately and from afar, you'll acquire the perspective that will enable you to see each thing in it's proper place and in it's true proportion. If you do this, you'll be more objective and you'll be spared many a cause of anxiety.

~ St. Josemaria Escriva
