A Serenity Prayer, to the Higher Power

May a higher power grant me the serenity

to accept the things I cannot change;

full realisation; the only thing I  can change is myself

my errant thinking.

Courage to change the things I can;

and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time.

Enjoying one moment at a time; as it may well be my last.

Accepting hardships

They are the only pathway to peace.

 Doing, taking, as Nature, the Creator asks,

in this sinful world; in all the realms;

as they do exist, not as I would have them.

Trusting that Nature alone can or will;

 make all things right;

if I surrender envisioned entitlements.

That I may be reasonably happy in this round life;

supremely happy with whatever is next.

Or, when I find myself in times of trouble

speaking words of wisdom, let dear Nature come

and in my hour of darkness, stand right beside me;

so I hear these words of wisdom, let it be.

Before I let any aspect  or belief in life control me,

Let that life be ended;let it be.

And when the broken-hearted people,

living in the world agree; there will be an answer;

for though they may be parted,

there is still a chance that they will see.

There will be an answer, so it be.

If it be in your plan, so be it
