I am sorry your Mom is sick.<br /><br />I also have lots of trouble with the serenity prayer and for the same reasons you wrote about. I have always thought I need to be able to know the difference...RIGHT NOW :-) I never thought about the fact that we are only asking for wisdom to know the difference.

Never thot to use it in this situation.

Just now when I read it I thought to myself "but how do you know????" I always need to know for sure or else something bad will happen. I'm glad your health is OK. I hope things go OK with your Mom. I'm really glad you are coping well.Pure O Canuckhttp://www.pureocanuck.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4379098794464036922.post-82569689232702883162011-10-24T10:41:42.640-07:002011-10-24T10:41:42.640-07:00I love this post.

I'm glad your tests came back benign, and I wish you all the best: serenity, courage, and wisdom galore. ; )Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13542984912834780882noreply@blogger.com
