尼布尔的祈祷文

God, Grant me the SERENITY,

上帝，请赐予我平静，

to accept the things I cannot change,

去接受我无法改变的。

COURAGE to change the things I can, and

赐予我勇气，去改变我能改变的

the WISDOM to know the difference.

赐我智慧，去分辨这两者的区别。

Living one day at a time;

Enjoying one moment at a time;

Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace.

Taking as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;

Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will.

That I may be reasonably happy in this life, and supremely happy with Him forever in the next.

Amen

这段话是出自《尼布尔的祈祷文》，我的父亲前段时间分享给了我前四句话，也就是被翻译了的那几句。

我是不信教的，具体原因不必在这里详述，这是个人的喜好。但是，这种定论不代表我要全盘否认它，而是依然可以从中吸取那些有意思的地方。

因此，我在原文的基础上做了一些改变：

I hope I have the SERENITY,

我希望我拥有平静，

to accept the things I cannot change,

去接受我无法改变的。

COURAGE to change the things I can, and

拥有勇气，去改变我能改变的

the WISDOM to know the difference.

拥有智慧，去分辨这两者的区别。

送给自己，也送给大家。
