Keep you head down and step into the wind

I think I am starting to feel more like my normal self again. It sure is nice to be surrounded by people that really care about me and how I am feeling. The older I get the more I realize that getting older is about acceptance. Accepting that sometimes things are good, accepting that sometimes things are pretty shitty, accepting that change is inevitable. I have always found comfort with the first stanza of the serentiy prayer:

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.
