My "daily prayer"
Ten years ago, when I was "on the edge", one of the things that helped me get back on track was following the (relentless) maxim:
"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."
Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971) American theologian, Protestant, sociologist of religion.
