How did you do it, Dad? How have you managed not to take a drink for almost 20 years? It took me almost 20 years to have the 16 to even ask my father this very personal question. When Dad first 17 drinking, the whole family was on pins and needles every time he got into a 18 that, in the past, would have started him 19 again. For a few years we were 20 to bring it up for fear that the drinking would begin again.

"I had this little poem that I would recite to myself at least four to five times a day," was Dad's 21 to my 18-year-old unasked question. "The words were a constant (經(jīng)常的) 22 to me that things were 23 so hard that I could not deal with them," Dad said. Then he 24 the poem with me. The poem's 25, yet profound (深刻的) words immediately became 26 of my daily routine as well.

About a month after this 27 with my father, I received a gift in the mail from a friend of mine. It was a book of daily sayings of wisdom with one 28 for each day of the year.

It has been my 29 that when you get something with days of the year on it, you naturally turn to the page that lists your own 30.

I 31 opened the book to November 10 to see 32 words of wisdom this book had in store for me. I was 33 when I looked at the page, and then tears of disbelief and appreciation 34 down my face. There, on my birthday, was the exact same poem that had 35 my father for all these years! It is called the Serenity (平靜) Prayer:

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.
