The Serenity Prayer

I just failed most of my subjects in college.I'm a pretty smart person but depression and thoughts of failure came over me. Surprisingly enough I'm not even depressed this time, I mean I have been on my previous failures. I just realized life is filled with limitless possibilities ready and ripe for the taking. Anyway I've come to share this on this site to show that becoming depressed will only lead you to more failures. Focus on what you can do!! Fight on and take advice from the "Serenity Prayer". I may not be a believer but that prayer is filled with worldly wisdom. Its the pic by the way (In case you're wondering) :)

That is a very meaningful prayer that we can always adopt. I am sure the only way is up for you as you have realized your mistakes and also know your potential. Best of luck - siva

Thank you Siva!!, It just goes to show that the our religions have some teachings and wisdom one can adapt even if they do not believe in it :)

@Dramista All religions have wisdom, but basic human nature overrides them. Many don't hesitate to take advantage of another, or take a shortcut against their conscience. As for me, I listen to my inner voice, the urging of the soul - siva

No. I wasn't wondering. Many people are very familiar with that prayer. Make plans to redeem your time here on earth. Once the day is over you don't get it back. Do your best not to do anything you will regret later. We all make mistakes and none of us are perfect and sinless. That doesn't mean we can't try to be. So do you plan to continue your college studies? It doesn't make sense to pay for courses if you're going to keep flunking out. Or is your college free?

Too much time and energy is wasted by living in the past. Learn to appreciate the past Utilize the Present And Do not be afraid to utilize the future :)
