Why is it some people will say--- when another is faced with a hardship--- " One is never given more than they can handle " ??
My pastor, of all people, is the first to sneer at this stupid falsehood. People get more than they can handle all the time. What doesn't kill us, doesn't necessarily make us stronger, but it does make us bitter.
Here's one more for the list:
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can,
and wisdom to hide the bodies of the people that really pi$$ed me off.
