the serenity prayer


confession of a lost mind
Someone said last day that I am not satisfied with what I have got . True , I agree it is the real hard sour truth and may be it is one of the reason I don't enjoy the current proceedings. Even minor bumps can throw me out of way to happiness.
I don't like things that I get but always yearn for things my friends own . and so I hate them for their ownership over my favorite (desired) things.
I don't know but I always feel that I have very few years left to live. I don't know Why? There is nothing wrong physically but I guess psychologically I am going towards my end. Thats the reason I want everything before time and in excess . I believe that life ends at 30 , after all till 30 is the time you live for yourself ,otherwise its family and the worldly bull shit. The thing with me is that I don't want the worldly comfort but I want something that I don't deserve . So Oh dear God, give me what I want and take anything in return (my life I can offer) whenever you want .


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.
--Reinhold Niebuhr


Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will direct your paths.
