    We say this poem (some say it as a prayer it's up to you ) in AA and it helps me everyday

    Grant me the serenity
    to accept the things I cannot change;
    courage to change the things I can;
    and wisdom to know the difference.

    If you have any other poems , song lyrics that will encourage and motivate people to keep clean please post them here
    peace be with you

    That was the first prayer my sponsor introduced me too.

    Acceptance is a cornerstone of my 92 days of sobriety.

    I can not change people places or things. I'm learning that that's one of our common traits. I have to accept what is around me and to concentrate on today and what I can change.
