We treasure our "Serenity Prayer" because it brings
a new light to us that can dissipate
our oldtime and nearly fatal habit of fooling ourselves.
In the radiance of this prayer we see that defeat,
rightly accepted, need be no disaster.
We now know that we do not have to run away,
nor ought we again try to overcome adversity
by still another bulldozing power drive
that can push up obstacles before us
faster than they can be taken down.
Reliance on God enables me
to match calamity with serenity.
