Most people will experience life as being full of ups and downs. They may have periods where things are going good, but this will tend to be followed by harder times. Even during the best of days the average person will still have fears that niggle at them. They never quite manage to experience complete peace.
There are other people who have managed to reach an emotional state known as serenity. Such individuals feel at peace most of the time. Life may continue to be full of ups and downs, but they no longer feel the bumps quite so hard. It is a highly desirable goal for people recovering from addiction to reach this state of equanimity. This is the state they once dreamed of achieving when they first turned to substance abuse.
