"Peace will come when you embrace the roles you have been destined to play"

I just finished watching the movie "Grace of Monoco" and was inspired by a profound quote that Grace Kelly's confidant said to her.

"You are the fairy tale.  The serenity to which we all aspire.  And Peace will come when you embrace the roles you have been destined to play.  Devoted mother.  Loyal wife.   Compassionate leader.  Up against a task larger than yourself, you will overcome your fear.  Those that preceded you will be forgotten.  Those that follow you will be inspired by your strength and indurance.  For no matter where you are in years to come they will continue to whisper your name."

I was particularly inspired because I think this quote applies to us all.  I think that calmness is a natural condition of fulfilling your role in life.  I believe that we were all predesitined to follow certain roles and that when we turn to God to discover those roles that we granted peace as we do the hard things necessary to fulfill our roles.
