The Serenity Prayer


"God grant me the serenity

to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference."

I honestly believe that if you can own
the words of this portion of the
Serenity Prayer, happiness and inner peace
will be easy.

I also heard of another quote, I cannot
think of who said it, however, it went
something like this:

"It makes no sense to worry about the
things you have control over, because if you
have control, you can change them.

It makes no sense to worry about the things
you do not have control over, because if you
don't have control, there is nothing you
can do anyway. So why worry?"

Whenever you are faced with a situation and
you do not know what to do, ask yourself;

Is there something I can do to influence this
situation?

If the answer is yes, then ask;

What are my options?

Then ask;

What option carries the most love?

Then take action!

If after asking;

Is there something I can do to influence this
situation?

The answer is no;

Let Go and Let God, and have faith that
whatever is best for your higher self will
happen.

You will always have the answers. You just
need to get quiet, relax, slow down and
tap into your inner guidance.

Blessings
