Since I am soliciting opinions, that makes this a topic for IMHO, although I will concede crossover with Cafe because of the historical tie in.

I am part of a men's group that usually closes meetings with St. Thomas Aquinas' Serenity Prayer,

God grant me the serenity to
accept the things I cannot change;
the courage to change the things that
I can;
and the wisdom to know the
difference

Nice, good sentiment, but very much a cliche in the circles that I run around in.

Being the smartass that I am, I'd like something similar in meaning and sentiment, but pithily witty and funny. It'll be fun to shake them up a bit. Can the Dope community help?

Try this (http://www.nationallampoon.com/flashbacks/deteriorata/default2.asp) on for size. There's also a printable version.

Remember but three things in life.

Dance as though you're in pain.

Love as though you don't need the money.

Work whenever someone is watching.
