The Other Serenity Prayer

Please grant me the serenity to stop beating myself up for not doing things perfectly;

give me the wisdom to realise I am a good person with a kind heart

and finally, please give me the courage to forgive myself because I always try my best.

 

Hope you enjoy the meeting, ladies
