1) A week ago I felt a lump in my breast. I go in for the imaging studies +/- biopsy tomorrow. I am scared of losing my breast.
God grant me the serenity to accept that my body goes through changes,
the courage to take the necessary treatment to promote my health both physically (surgery?) and mentally (exercise, meditation, connection with others, writing in journal, acting toward things I value),
and wisdom to know the difference...
2) I have been overworked at my job- multiple long nights at work and long weekend and holiday shifts. The people in charge do not seem to want to change this, and I feel angry that I feel trapped and that my time and energy feel consumed by this job rather than by an activity where I have more flexibility to grow and connect to the world in the way I choose. I am right now looking for another job, and realize the timing is a challenge given my possible health issues and this may mean that I have to move.
God grant me the serenity to accept my feelings of anger and see that it might be my mind giving me a signal to get out of an unhealthy situation,
The courage to find and move into a situation where I can better direct my energy to so that I can best take care of myself
and the wisdom to know if my energy is best spent changing the situation or holding out a little longer until I resolve my health issues, as security is important.
3) I am alone, feel lonely and fear that I will be lonely in the future
God grant me the serenity to accept my experience in life,
the courage to change my attitude that being alone is bad and at the same time seek out the support of others when I need,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
thank you for a smart lady who mentioned this prayer to me.
