Yes agreed.
I found a lot more resolution and resolve by accepting the external conditions and changing the internal condition to find some measure of congruence and closure.
Perhaps serenity and wisdom really does come from know what we can change and what we cannot.
I cannot always (if ever) change what is given, but I can change the meaning I give to it.
Any thoughts anyone?
