As Previously Mentioned: Serenity

As schizophrenic as I have been feeling lately, I can't decide between this:

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.

Living one day at a time;

Enjoying one moment at a time;

Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;

Taking, as He did, this sinful world

As it is, not as I would have it;

Trusting that He will make all things right

If I surrender to His Will;

So that I may be reasonably happy in this life

And supremely happy with Him

Forever and ever in the next.

or this:

as my response to life these days.

I was feeling all peaceful and optimistic in my outlook, having completed my "blessings" list, gaining some perspective, etc. There will be hard times, but there will come answers. Find the blessings in life in the meantime. Stay positive. All that jazz.

And then a friend heard some absolutely devastating news yesterday. And I realized, once again, that life can be insanely f*ing unfair.

So what do you do? Stay serene? Or go straight for insanity, no detours? Don't look at me, I'm still trying to figure it out.
