a whole new perspective.

I was troubled by some stuff that happened that was close to my heart. But having received news of one of my school mate's unfortunate mishap, the incident that happened seems trivial now.

"In every life,
there comes a time
to walk in shadows and in sunlight,
to hear silence and song,
to shed tears of sadness and of joy,
to forget what has been taken,
and remember
what has been given"

I found this extremely meaningful, especially the last 3lines, in which my best friends should know why.

I'll offer a prayer up to the Lord for him.

This is my favourite prayer, for both myself, and to his loved ones.

The Serenity 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.
