Anyone Heard of the Senility Prayer?

[susiestar]

I found this on a cross stitch site -

The Senility Prayer

God, grant me
the senility to
forget the people
I never liked anyway,
The good fortune
to run into the ones
that I do and the
eyesight to tell
the difference.


While I love the Serenity Prayer, this one also has a place!

Perfect!

I used to have this hanging on the side of my cube, all done up in a fancy font. I had a section head come to talk with me and he started reading it (I'm sure thinking it was the "other" prayer) and he then shook his head and told me I was sick!

I love it!

'cept I thought it said - the good sense to run-over the ones I don't like ------I am senile. Then I got my glasses and read it AGAIN. lol.

Star, you are not senile, you are just my kind of woman! Though I won't tell anyone that you aren't senile - esp if you DO run over them, lol!!!!!

STAR! your problem isn't the senility NOR the presence or absense of good sense...
It's your eyesight!<not sure why these are supposed to be the golden years... maybe I'll figure that out once the kids leave home? assuming, of course, that they do...>

This has always been one of my all-time fave quotes.
