Welcome

Welcome to Keep Calm and Relax.This website was inspired by the profound and insightful wisdom of courageous people throughout the ages. Historically events and circumstances that can cause us stress, have remained surprisingly unchanged. These words are my interpretation of how the inspirational philosophy of yesterday can be a positive influence on how we cope with tomorrow. I have woven my thoughts on coping with difficult times and how to survive them around the wise and wonderful words of great men and women.

Do get in touch if you agree or disagree with anything I have to say. I don't have answers just my thoughts and the thoughts of wise men and women that might just make you think differently.

ALL THOSE WHO WANDER ARE NOT LOST

Even when we know exactly where we are, we can be lost. There comes a time in every life when roads we have always walked come to an end, forcing us to change direction and embark upon an unknown route that takes us through places we did not intend to go.

The new way can feel unsafe; have no reassuring landmarks and take much longer, no-one waves from the side of the road; no fellow travellers encourage you to keep going and the unfamiliar scenery makes you feel lost.

Buber wrote “All journeys have a secret destination of which the traveller is unaware

Where you think you are going, may not be where you end up, but if you look beyond the road and discover how fulfilling travelling can be,you may find happiness in just moving forward. Your destination may not be a place but a realization of what you can achieve if you take the road less travelled and turn it into a journey of discovery.

Title is by Tolkien
