Calmness of the Mind and Soul

Where can we find the calmness of our minds and souls
Our minds are always running wild
Images of dreams overlap and overlap
Until they are messy and entangled
Dream may or may not come true 
If it comes true, it'll become a reality
It yields satisfaction
Followed by the calmness of the mind and soul
If it doesn't  come true, it'll become an illusion
It yields disappointment 
Followed by the restlessness of the mind and soul
Unknown and uncertainity
Fate and destiny, fear and worry
Greed and dissatisfaction
Guilt and  inferiority
All will erode the calmness of our minds and souls
Maybe we will find calmness in love and confidence
True and justice
And of course not excluding a religion 
As a chance to achieve
The calmness of our minds and souls
We can adopt a religion 
And pray to the almighty god
Who is always a good listener  
And a good comforter
