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

Happy Belated Mother's Day!

Never give up; you never know until you try.

In the insanity that has been my week, I realized that I hadn't scheduled this week's post.  So now, as some have forgotten American Mother's Day, and some are still stinging because they were forgotten, or felt forgotten, on Mother's Day, I salute all "mothers."  You may be male, female, young, not-so-young, parents of children of all ages, parents of pets you adore, just a concerned human being showing love and parental guidance and nurturing to someone who needs it.  Whoever you are, wherever you are, if you have "mothered" some creature in some way, I salute your caring.  God bless you!
