serenity

Before I start my day I wanted to post a quote I found years ago. I don't know the author - I found it looking for substance abuse and ACOA information at work. I need to keep it in mind today and thought others might find it helpful as well.

Acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing or situation-some fact in my life unacceptable to me and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God's world by mistake. - unknown
