I needed to look no further than the Twelve Steps
and the powerful working of our Serenity Prayer,
"to accept the things we cannot change."
My personal answer is there in the word "accept."
Accept man's place in the universal scheme
Accept my life as one minute particle of the whole.
None of us can ever fathom the glories
and the uncharted regions of the universe.
But we can live on earth and love one another.
We can let in the beginnings of
concern, compassion, consideration,
and watch ourselves grow.
With the tools and guideposts of Alcoholics Anonymous,
we can learn a little of this precious gift --
our gateway to human spirituality.

Thought to Ponder....

How we treat others is a consequence of the depth of our own spirituality.
