The Serenity Prayer

This prayer, often repeated, is an originally untitled prayer by theologian Reinhold Niebuhr. It makes great sense to me, and whether you believe in God or not, I think it's a smart idea.

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

My Two Cents Worth of Political Advice

Never give up; you never know until you try.

The American elections are over, with the usual result:  some people are happy, and some aren't.  My opinion of the matter is . . .

  1. If "your" candidate won, be a gracious "winner."
  2. If "your" candidate lost, be a gracious "loser."
  3. Results notwithstanding, participate in the process by staying informed and making your voice heard on an ongoing basis, not just at election time.
  4. Appreciate the freedom we have to participate in the process.
Have a great rest of the week, everyone!
