I believe we all have an inherent desire for serenity. Â There are some people who have a natural ability to be serene no matter what is going on. Â I marvel at my wife as she calmly takes on life like a swan moving about effortlessly on a lake in spite of having curve balls thrown at her daily, if not hourly, by our special son Jordan. Â Then on the other hand, there are people like myself who have to work to obtain serenity.
The “Serenity Prayer,” written by Reinhold Niebuhr during World War II has become a arrow in my quiver of tools I use in order to have peace in my life. Â Over the next couple of weeks I will be breaking the prayer down and inserting my personal views about this very powerful prayer…sit back and take in some serenity.
