Ataraxia: Definition from Answers.com

ATARAXY - An ancient Greek word which is best re-framed not as any simple negative or static condition, not as mere absence of pain/toil/defeat/suffering/loss but as a dynamic way of endless journeying IN SPITE OF all setbacks or challenges. Damn you, cruel Fate, you will never break [ or even mis-shape ] my Spirit. Only surrendering should really disturb you. Calmness, being UN-disturbed, mentally, physically, socially, is not absence of strife but relentless determination to ultimately prevail in and against all strife. I am always much-more-than [ and never reducible to ] any current crisis Ataraxia: Definition from Answers.com
