To apply this great wisdom...
1. The past cannot be changed, so what there is to do is to accept what has been with no regrets, no resentments, and no call for vengeance.
2. Remember that there are a million "wrong things" in the world (as well as a billion "right things"), so focus your energies on addressing with courage the few issues closest to your heart, and accept the rest of life with serenity.
3. Never waste your time or energy complaining. Either take positive action, or accept with serenity. This is especially true with regard to politics and money.
So true. The older you get, the more you understand. Too bad a lot of people don't realize this until they ARE old and never had the courage to even try to make any changes. As the old saying goes "If I knew then what I know now".....
