Else - I think Serenity for me is when I stop thinking about serenity or sobriety it just is. I find life is full of paradoxes. I make more money when I stop focusing on making more money, I grow my relationship by letting go of trying to control my relationship. I get sober by accepting the lack of power I have over my sobriety. For me I am finding serenity in acceptance and letting go. By releasing this concept of having control over things I never really had control over and letting go of resentments that come from this I am able to release the underlying fears of irrelevancy. This is slowly allowing me to live life in the present and not worry about things I should not be worrying about. This is allowing me to find inner peace.
