I’ve decided to join in with the Wednesday Words linky run by the lovely Emma @crazywithtwins. I must think these words nearly every single day, in some ways its become my personal mantra and I find it both reassuring and motivating – I hope you do too!
The Serenity Prayer by Reinhold Niebuhr
“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.”
The prayer is longer and can be read in its entirety here but this is the part that sticks with me daily. I am not religious but really appreciate the simplicity of the message.
I think these words are particularly uplifting in hard times. I think it makes us appreciate what we have too.
Thanks for linking up to Wednesday Words (and for calling me lovely!). Xx
You are lovely! And I have already thought of my words for next week so thanks for inspiring me with Wednesday Words. X
I think, if I ever had a tattoo, it might have to be these words! Thankyou for the link to the whole prayer.
Thanks for your comment and glad you like whole prayer. I really like it as a mantra it really does do what it says and makes me feel more serene and in control when things are a bit crazy.
