“When you are at The Holy City of Roma, do as they do at The Holy City of Roma; when you are elsewhere, do as they do elsewhere.”

Augustine in Art - Wheaton College, IL
Tranquility must derive from ORDER~~ first and foremost.
 
The peace that Christ gives is not a human fabrication (John 14:27).
The Prince of Peace Pictures of Jesus by Simon Dewey | Altus Fine ...
But as the Creator has entrusted the care of His creation to humans as His most complex creatures, we are responsible for promoting what Saint Augustine called the tranquilitas ordinis—the tranquility of order.

Feast Day, November 4 Saint Monica

No mother, other than the Virgin Mary Herself, is considered to have had so much influence on the early Catholic Christian Church, as Monica of Tagaste, Africa?

Why so? Because Saint Monica spent most of her lifetime praying for the Christian conversion of a wayward and wordly son, who eventually became one of the Church’s greatest theologians, Saint Augustine.

Some observers considered her an interfering, in-your-face kind of mom. Others saw her as a shrewd woman of faith and spiritual anchor for a son whose talents she felt belonged to the Church.

A crowning moment for Saint Monica was when she saw Augustine finally baptized in the Church.

The well-known expression “When in Rome…” derives from a conversion between St Augustine and His Mother, Saint Monica
 
As the story goes, Saint Monica came to Rome to visit Her son and was much distressed that the people were not fasting, all night, Saturday, in preparation for receiving Holy Communion at Holy Mass Sunday.
 
Saint Augustine told His Mother, very gently:
 
“When you are at The Holy City of Roma, do as they do at The Holy City of Roma; when you are elsewhere, do as they do elsewhere.”
 
At that point, Saint Augustine became the teacher and the mother, Saint Monica, who had prayed so long and so hard for his conversion to The Faith, became Her son’s pupil.

          Saint Jane Frances de Chantal Catholic parochial school, called, by anyone of any background, simply: “Chan~al,” a place where, of an autumn day in 1957, school,  for me,  began and ended in the first convening of the first grade in which a tiny nun, one Sister Dom Bosco, appeared before me, just behind the window appearing at far left of this photograph, and piped out this: “I may be small, but so then, is the Atom Bomb.”

          My determination to escape school commenced immediately on hearing about this Atom Bomb business and took 16 dicey and arduous years to finally accomplish.~~

          “Jean-Marie Le Pen is a friend. He is dangerous for the political set because he’s the only one who’s sincere. He says out loud what many people think deep down, and what the politicians refrain from saying because they are either too demagogic or too chicken. Le Pen, with all his faults and qualities, is probably the only one who thinks about the interests of France before his own.”~~

          ~~

          In the Old South, the real Southland, we had a charming expression, when asked what an idle man did for a living:

          ~~

          “Oh, he raises cotton.”
          ~~
        • Which meant, he did absolutely nothing at all, as cotton,  “the white gold,” raises herself.
