Acceptance

Oh God,

I have a sneaking suspicion

about the direction my life is moving,

and the path I am walking;

and to be honest,

I’m a bit apprehensive

about what is ahead.

To be clear,

I’m not asking for You to intervene;

nor, am I suggesting that my life be easier.

I just want to be happy

and need your help

to see what You see,

and hear what you hear.

I have confidence that we walk together in harmony

and I rest assured that you are happy with me.

May it be so

In the movie "Harvey", Elwood P Dowd, played by Jimmy Stewart, explains coping with the world this way: "Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me." Well, for years I was smart, oh so very smart, I too recommend pleasant - Trust the harmony
