God gives you the people,resources and mindset you need to go forward in life. But as humans, you and I go on worrying.The end goals realizing there’s no end goal but the journey, the tea shop stops and the people who sing along with you on the journey that matters.The circle of influence,love ,memories.The people who will help you live with grace.

What does serenity mean :According to the dictionary, “the state or quality of being serene, calm, or tranquil; sereneness.” Synonyms: peacefulness, peace, calm, composure.

While most of you have heard the serenity prayer ,few claim to live it. That’s the reason I picked up a little book of Serenity. It’s calmness with grace.The understanding of one’s troubles and accepting the journey one has to walk.You may walk with a smile or with tears in your eyes,will always be your choice.

The Serenity prayer

….grant to us the serenity of mind to accept that which cannot be changed, courage to change that which can be changed, and wisdom to know the one from the other through…

Reinhold Niebuhr 

Choosing grace is the most difficult thing for me ,when I just want to flame the fire.But that’s where wisdom comes in .It’s not just the Dopamine hit you want.It’s the good effect of endorphin, which will keep you feeling great even when the stimulus is gone.The book has a pretty book cover and pretty font.Something to pass on to your kids type book .It’s a book of short poems and quotes by the author and by other stalwarts which the author likes .
