WISDOM OF TODAY



The wisdom of today


"We often wish for more, without realizing that life's most precious

treasures, are often within the palms of our hands.

It is not success, but rather the journey there,

that often makes our lives complete.

We are most at peace with the world, when we accept

the wonderful and amazing creature - that is - ourselves.

When we give our all TODAY; and look forward to giving tomorrow

the same, then there is no reason for regretting our yesterdays.

Despise not the past, for in it lies the wisdom of today,

and the hope of tomorrow.

THE SERENITY PRAYER

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.

LIVING ONE DAY AT A TIME;
ENJOYING ONE MOMENT AT A TIME;
ACCEPTING HARDSHIPS AS THE PATHWAY TO PEACE;
TAKING, AS HE DID, THIS SINFUL WORLD
AS IT IS, NOT AS I WOULD HAVE IT;
TRUSTING THAT HE WILL MAKE ALL THINGS RIGHT
IF I SURRENDER TO HIS WILL;
THAT I MAY BE REASONABLY HAPPY IN THIS LIFE
AND SUPREMELY HAPPY WITH HIM
FOREVER IN THE NEXT.
AMEN.
