Dear God,
Please grant me the strength …
To take one day at a time
To refrain from obsessing about each twinge
and ache I experience in my body
To be kind to myself
To enjoy the wondrous mystery of the 2ww
To understand the difference between healthy
hope and unhealthy expectation
To accept success and failure as if they
are one and the same
To preserve my original self amidst all
this craziness
To abstain from hurting others during my
stressful times
To hide my pain and wear a smile on my lips
always …
To use my pain to grow even better without
getting bitter
To stay positive so that my loved ones
remain happy and tranquil
To be serene amidst all the uncertainity
To be content for all my blessings
To be grateful for the blessings I possess
To bear the disappointment in my partner’s
face if the result is negative
To understand life is not all about winning
but about trying
To accept that life can be very unfair at
times
To realize that many others have to bear much
more pain than I have to
To love and appreciate life even more ...
To hold on to hope yet have the wisdom to
know when to quit
To trust that whatever the outcome, I will
emerge a stronger and a better person
To gain the ability to achieve peace of
mind that I did my best
And .....
If the pregnancy test turns out to be
positive ...
Let me have the goodness to accept my
blessing with humility
To hope for the best yet be prepared for
the worst
And to continue to live life with utmost
gratitude
With love,
Manju
