Serenity is the noun: the state of being , that deep, clear calm. People look for serenity when life is loud — in a quiet courtyard, on a mountain path, or, they hope, in their own mind.

組成From Latin serēnitās by way of Old French serenité and Middle English serenyte; in English it is serene + -ity (the state of being…).
