Nice Little Packages
I have been thinking a lot about many different things lately. My head has been moving in different directions.. different thoughts and different emotions swimming around in there and sometimes if feels like I don't have any control of them.
Yesterday I was in a meeting and something just struck me. It was the beginning of the meeting and we were reciting the Serenity Prayer... I just really started to think about the words and how they applied to me.
Every single word of that prayer had a direct impact on me and those words just kind of flowed over me like water...
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.
It pretty much covers everything in just one long sentence. It covers everything that I am thinking about in once nice little package. All of the things that I cannot change but I want to have have control over... like that control is going to change the outcome of anything.
I am leaving to go see a dear old friend of mine in Oregon after work today. I am pretty excited to go because I have not seen him in like 8 years or so... that is way too long.
