AA Thought for the Day

And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today.
When I am disturbed,
it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation
-- some fact of my life --
unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity
until I accept that person, place, thing, or situation
as being exactly the way it is supposed to be
at this moment.
Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in God's world
by mistake.
Until I could accept my alcoholism, I could not stay sober;
unless I accept life completely on life's terms,
I cannot be happy.
I need to concentrate not so much
on what needs to be changed in the world
as on what needs to be changed in me and in my attitudes.

Thought to Ponder....

Serenity is not the absence of conflict,
but the ability to cope with it.
