Think About It

THE OLD VERSE:

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


THE NEW VERSE:

 I was born with a questioning mind, given the strength, and courage to make  
changes; for there is no wisdom or serenity in accepting what is, and what can 
never be.
