could the higher power be just us as individuals? The higher power of being the best that we can be- another persona or even our "spirit" so to speak that is with in us, .... a part of us that we bury so much by the wanting, striving for things to be "the way we want things" in ways but yet hurt so much to do so, but this piece of us that is higher in a since, is still there.... and we have to try in ourselves to let it be, and to accept it, and strive for it... (?)

I do love the serenity prayer though (long version perfered)
