Serenity prayer and day one

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.

I have this prayer on my kitchen wall. It is on a counted cross stitch that my grandmother made. (And I am no spring chicken, so it is really old!) Recently, someone said, you know that that is the AA prayer don’t you?

I did not know that.

I went several days last week without drinking, but fell for the delicious cabernet that was served with the steak we had. OOPS.

I am on another day one. I know I need courage to change my evening wine ritual. Surely, with help from The Big Guy I CAN change my behavior. (I do have great faith and completely believe in a higher power!)
