I'm passing this on to you because it definitely worked for me and we all could use more calm in our lives. 
By following the simple advice I heard on a medical t.v. show, I have found inner peace. It's true. A doctor proclaimed the way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you have started. 
So I looked around my house to see things I'd started and hadn't finished and, before leaving the house this morning, I finished off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of shhardonay, a bodle of Baileys, a butle of vocka, a pockage of Punglies, that mainder of bot Prozic and Alum scriptins, the res of the Chesescke an a box of choclits. 
Yu haf no idr who fkin gud I fel! 
Peas sen dis orn to dem yu fee AR in ned ov inr pis.

John, this was wonderful, thanks! I was just getting into my meditative OOOMMMM mood - changed it now to look for 'things to finish' in the house. Will report if I've found inner peace tomorrow -- eh, perhaps on Thursday .... =)
