A Night With a Thousand Stars

On this night with a thousand stars

I wanted to see the heavenly door

Where the music of angels

Plays forevermore.

 

But the moon does not like a traveler

Or maybe not this time of the year

When there are baggages here and there

Maybe when the pain is no more.

 

It takes time for a scar to heal

Or a heart to forget a tear

Until or maybe only after

The Cross has made a forgiving soul...

 

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--

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will direct your paths.

--Proverbs 3, 5-6--
