Big Book Third addition
And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation-some fact of my life-unacceptable to me, and can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God’s world by mistake.... I could not stay .......; unless I accept life completely on life’s terms, I cannot be happy. I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world, as on what needs to be changed in me and in my attitudes.

This is from Alcoholics Annoymous's Big Book. I keep this as my favorite on my computer and when I start to get angry and ungreatful I pull this up. It literally saves me!!

Good going Soup. Proud of you!
