SERENITY
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot
change;
The Serenity Prayer
the courage to change the things I can;
and the wisdom
to know the difference.
My life before abstinence was a fight in the dark to stabilize my world and protect myself from more pain. Too much suffering was endured by this child. She never understood that she could ever come back into the Light. But, the fog is lifting now ... there are days of clarity and joy. How could she have known? She was too little.
Circumstances change ... memories fade away ... I can be safe again ... I can allow myself to be me. I will work my program to secure the Light again in my world.
One day at a time . . .
I pray to understand that the stream of life keeps moving ... I will live in darkness no longer.
