Yes, the serenity prayer is what a lot of people here are saying in some form or another.
I have found a great gift by learning acceptance. It is a powerful thing to accept what is. ISness is all there IS. When you get that, things change drastically, miraculously and beautifully in your world!
With acceptance you are able to change things, but you do so in a much more powerful manner.
For me, I just realize if I am griping, complaining and moaning and groaning, then I am NOT accepting what IS right NOW. As I fight what is right now, I make myself and everyone around me miserable.
BUT... if you are truly accepting what IS, you feel an inner peace even if it isn't something you prefer right now. You can move forward with more clarity and the wisdom to choose something different.
I am probably not making sense, so I will just stop.
Just wanted to say, that I agree with you, in a round about way.
