Serenity and Peacefulness, the difference
Peacefulness is a still, undisturbed inner quiet. Serenity is that calm carried with gentle contentment.
Each in a line
Serenity
Serenity is gentle, undisturbed calm and quiet contentment. Breathing is slow and easy, and the mind is clear without effort. You rest in yourself, needing nothing to be different. The conditions that produce it are scarce in modern life.

Peacefulness
Peacefulness is the still, undisturbed inner quiet when striving stops. The breath slows and the chest comes to rest. The world keeps moving, but nothing within pulls against it. It is not numbness or the absence of feeling.
