Today’s Thought: Knowing the Difference Makes a Difference

When we attempt to control things, events, or people we can’t control we become frustrated. Our frustration often turns to anger and we say or do things we later regret. The Serenity Prayer offers a way through this conundrum.

“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.”

🤗 A Better Life ~ Finding the Peaceful Path

Every now and then it’s important for me to recite the serenity prayer (at least the first part). It gives me a good reminder of how to set foot on a peaceful path.

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.
