Serenity Prayer

Through observations here in Paysandu, I believe that people here live the Serenity Prayer only they are not really aware of the prayer, their lives seem to follow it's path more closely than anywhere else I have ever lived.
Pardon me if you may be offended by it's content but I want to take the liberty to share that prayer with you so you can more closely understand what life is like here in Paysandu.  I cannot speak to the entire country because I believe living in Montevideo may be a little different.

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. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next. Amen. --Reinhold Niebuhr This personifies life in Paysandu.
