#Fiction Monday (132) - Thoughts about a prayerGanduri despre o rugaciune

This game is hosted by Vinitha Dileep, on her blog  'Reflections' and
I discovered it on Esha's  blog. This time  the  word prompt is 'ACCEPT'.

Since I read this little prayer for the first time, I told myself that it captures the
essence of a possible solution for sorting thoughts and reactions to the flow of energies
received from the surrounding space, from society, friends, family.
The changes are the only constant in our lives and facing them with grace is very important. Some are predictable, some are not. Some can be the engine of our own evolution, but
others can be our awakening, in changing the direction of our own path. Accepting the
existence of changes, I believe, it shapes our way of looking at the world, finding our own solutions to solve some blockages and becoming stronger in the face of the storms.
What I find very interesting is that, if I am prepared, from the moment of an unexpected
or bad situation occurs, the first thought generates the idea that I am encountering
a new lesson to solve, from which I have something to learn. So, looking at the changes
from this perspective, they can be managed more easily, with a little wisdom.

De cand am citit prima oara aceasta mica rugaciune, mi-am spus ca ea surprinde
esenta unei solutii posibile pentru trierea gandurilor si reactiilor fata de fluxul de
energii primit din spatiul inconjurator, de la societate, prieteni, familie.
Schimbarile sunt singura constanta a vietii noastre si a le face fata cu gratie este
foarte important. Unele sunt previzibile, altele nu. Unele pot fi motorul propriei
evolutii, altele insa pot fi trezirea noastra, in schimbarea directiei propriului drum.
Acceptarea existentei schimbarilor cred ca ne modeleaza modul de a privi lumea,
de a ne gasi propriile solutii de rezolvare a unor blocaje si de a deveni mai
puternici in fata furtunilor.
Ceea ce mi se pare foarte interesant este ca, daca sunt pregatita, din secunda in care
intervine o situatie neasteptata, neconvenabila, primul gand genereaza ideea ca
ma intersectez cu o noua lectie de rezolvat, din care am ceva de invatat.
Asa ca, privind schimbarile din aceasta perspectiva, ele se pot gestiona mai usor, cu
putina intelepciune.

Update:
Daniela mi-a destainuit ceea ce eu nu stiam, autorul rugaciunii, Reinhold Niebuhr.
Si am avut surpriza sa o descopar in integralitatea ei:
