The Serenity Prayer

 

God, grant me the serenity,

To accept the things I cannot change,

Courage to change the things I can,

And wisdom to know the difference.

 

 

 

His Holiness the Dalai Lama

 

If the situation or problem is such that it can be remedied,

Then there is no need to worry about it.

Alternately, if there is no way out, no solution,

No possibility of resolution,

Then there is no point in being worried about it

Because you can't do anything about it anyway.
