I find myself all caught up in someone else's problems in the blink of an eye. All it takes is for an emotionally charged display of some injustice and I'm in there like a dirty shirt taking up the cause.
The other day the serenity prayer came to mind and I thought to myself ohhh yea....I forgot!
I find that the quickest way to absolve myself of partaking of troubles that don't belong to me is to remember that prayer...and in the blink of an eye I am able to see what my part of a problem is and what part of a problem belongs to someone else.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change
the courage to change the things i can
and the wisdom to know the difference
Amen
c.anna
