Acceptance/Control/Serenity Prayer

Now I think my point is that I have learned to live with it all... with being old... whatever happens... all of it.

- Edelgard
How wonderful that we not only have the opportunity to live our lives, we have the opportunity to accept them! We have spent so much time and energy foolishly fighting things that we cannot change and butting our heads up against steel-reinforced brick walls that we have not stopped to ask ourselves if this is the hill we want to die on.

Part of learning to live our lives is developing the ability to accept what cannot be changed and learn to live creatively with those situations. Also, we need to discover what can be challenged and to move forward with courage when necessary. Acceptance is not resignation. Acceptance is serenity embrancing life.

TODAY MY LIFE IS ENOUGH JUST THE WAY IT IS, AND IT IS MINE.
(Anne Wilson Schaef)
