[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 619239, member: 17461"] It helps to have something you have memorized ready to repeat to yourself when you wake up worrying. The rhythms of the repetition of the verses, along with the imagery that attends especially the Shakespeare piece, are soothing enough to break through the middle of the night worrying cycle. Here are two things that I have used: God, grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the Courage to change the things I can, and the Wisdom to know the difference. ************** "The quality of Mercy is not strain'd It falleth as the gentle rain from Heav'n upon the place beneath. It is twice blest; It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. Tis mightiest in the Mighty." William Shakespeare Merchant of Venice Cedar [/QUOTE]
