I feel myself embracing serenity just a little more each day. However, I recognize the irony of me being impatient to become a patient person. I mean, seriously, what is my problem? Why must everything be RIGHT NOW for me.
I am grateful that I am growing. I am grateful for the self-knowledge I have obtained thus far. I am hopeful and excited about everything else that life will be throwing at me - good and bad. I need to remember that it is not all about me and be okay with that. I also need to remind myself that the Serenity Prayer slows me down so I should take time to say it throughout the day. My new mantra: I can't. S/He can. I'll let Her/Him. I need to work with God and allow Her/Him to guide me and stop attempting to influence God. I will get there...eventually.
So, need a good laugh (and who doesn't)? This one gets me every time!
"Penguins love ice cream!"
I close with a random thought from my Caribou Coffee cup: "Kiss slowly and forgive quickly." May we each remember that during our next fight with a loved one.
Love you!
