being in alcoholism recovery has enabled me to use the serenity prayer in my life.
Quote:
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.
having the desire to change myself and acquire coping skills to live by.

journaling

gratitude of what is, not what i think it should be.

for me it's that simple. good thread, sandworm.
