Saw this on another website, and thought I would share, as I have never seen the "long version.'
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. Grant me patience with the changes that take time, Appreciation of all that I have, Tolerance of those with different struggles, And the strength to get up and try again One day at a time

I Googled this. Reinhold Niebuhr wrote it. You can read the article. The original is beautiful and it's in here.
The short version was printed on cards for soldiers. Then AA adopted it.
This is great! Thank you for sharing it with us.
