GOD, GRANT ME...

I found a new prayer in my reading this morning that I am going to take as a new slogan for myself. I found it in Hazelden Meditations A Day at a Time. Maybe some of you can relate to the spirit of it. It reads, "God, grant me the ability to laugh at myself--often--for I need that laughter to cope with the everyday commotion of living." That prayer must have been conceived by someone in my age group. Aging requires serenity in a big way. God, grant us all more of it.
