Knowing how to accept things you can't change!!!

Whenever I face worries or challenges in my life, I always return to the wisdom of The Serenity Prayer -

“God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”

We live in a world where it is so easy to get caught up with worry.  I don't know anyone who isn't worried about something or other – work worries, personal worries, financial worries, past worries, future worries etc.  The reality is that many of us worry about things that we cannot change or things we have no control over and we get stuck in this pattern  When we do this, we are effectively wasting our time and energy.
