Prevalence

In this recent study, approximately 20% of the almost 15,000 attorneys interviewed experienced “hazardous, harmful” alcohol consumption and a significant number – 28% (depression), 19% (anxiety) and 23% (stress) experienced mental health problems. This is similar to The Florida Bar’s findings that 36% of bar members experience alcohol abuse and suicide is a top ten cause of death.

Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make things right if I surrender to His will; So that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever and ever in the next.

Amen.
