Serenity is the name of a great Joss Whedon sci-fi movie that has been
described by some as a space western.
The serenity I have and am writing about is having peace of mind with who
I am and what I am doing in my life today.
As a child, I optimistically imagined I would be a jet-setting high-powered
civil engineer fixing the problems of the world’s infrastructure. In reality, I go to 12-step meetings and run
errands around Bellevue. It is not the
life I imagined. I have come to serene
terms with life on life’s terms by learning how to accept my world as it is and
do what I can to help make it a better place to live.
Psychotherapy, anti-depressants, 12-step programs, spirituality and
positive psychology are some of the tools that I have used to create peace in
my turbulent mind. It is much better
than how it used to be.
I am grateful for my serenity today.
I might also watch Serenity again tonight. It is a good guy movie.
