What’s With the Serenity Prayer, Anyway?

In this podcast, Bruno J. discusses the true meaning of the popular Serenity Prayer.

We learn that:

1. Yes, there are things you absolutely must accept, such as the fact that there is no hope of a better past.
2. Or the fact that you have no real idea of what the future holds. You can plan for the future, but you do not have to live there, for it can be a fearful place.
3. One should make a conscious effort to strive for the insight that helps you understand what you can do something about. Much of that is in the attitude you take about caring for yourself.
4. If you happen to recite the prayer for yourself in times of stress or trouble, remember that it is your Higher Power that will help you gain wisdom and insight…but you have to do your part.
