Life's lessons have taught me that problems are there to stay but our ability how to handle them is the secret to happiness. There is this prayer members of the Alcoholic Anonymous recite every single day Therein lies the truth about how to handle life. It is called the Serenity Prayer What is your secret? How do you handle your problems? 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. Source:
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigation Jump to search The Serenity Prayer is the common name for a prayer written by the American theologian Reinhold Niebuhr[1][2] (1892–1971). The best-known form is: God, grant me the serenity to accept

I write the list of my problem and I discuss with my husband to find the best solution to solve them. We have a saying in Italy "Help yourself and then God will help you". This means do not stay there hoping that he will help if you do nothing.

So true. We all have to handle situations that best suit us. I give some time and then I decide on a cut off time when I just move on leaving that problem behind.

@allknowing Not always something that looks like a big problem is finally so serious if you take the time to examine the solutions.

This is a very good prayer. I am better at following it now that I am older.

If one realises that problems are a way of life it becomes easy to face them.

@allknowing That's true. There will always be problems in our lives. It's how we deal with them that matters.

It is never a cake walk but surely with handling skills it is less difficult.
