Hey, Lar,
> I can't think of a better time to apply the Serenity Prayer. What you can do, you will do. The rest, you hand over to your Higher Power.
<<I've always had problems with that prayer....with the *wisdom* part. I don't have it. :-)And I'm afraid with this depression stuff my belief in God has suffered a bit.
> Hugs and prayers,
> LarThanks. I need 'em. It's so much easier to deal with my own pain than it is to watch my brother suffer. I don't know how to help him. I offer baby sitting, and painting his new house, but K doesn't want any of my brother's family over there right now. I've offered money, but he won't take it. I've offered to find him legal help (I don't do family law), and he did take me up on that....
Powerless. I'd give it to God if I thought He'd take it......I've been praying up a storm, but I don't have a good track record with success from prayer, I'm afraid.....
