Lately there's been various bad news going around.
I thought this might cheer some up. It's from The Spiritual Guide by Molinos. The following quote is from Chapter I, verse 3:
"Be constant, and cheer up thine heart in whatsoever disquiet these tributlations may cause to thee. Enter within it, that thou may overcome it; for therein is the Divine Fortress, which defends, protects and fights for thee. If a man hath a safe Fortress, he is not disquieted, though his enemies pursue him; because, by retreating within it, these are disappointed and overcome. The strong Castle, that will make thee triumph over all thine enemies, visible and invisible, and over all their snares and tribulations, is within thine own Soul, because in it resides the Divine Aid and Sovereign Succour. Retreat within it and all will be quiet, secure, peaceable and calm."
