Today will be a hard day.
Reports have been public for a while that The Cincinnati Enquirer will be laying off 100 employees this week, most of whom will know their fate before July 9th.
I know many people that work at the company.
I've read their numerous Facebook status updates of them trying to cope with this day.
To all my friends and acquaintances, who will be affected by this unfortunate time - whether as a part of management or as employee - my prayers are with each and every one of you.
I know how you must be feeling.
I have been there.
I offer you only what I know best...a prayer of hope...and serenity...
Serenity Prayer
by Reinhold Niebuhr
God, give us grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
Courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the Wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other.
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,
Taking, as Jesus did,
This sinful world as it is,
Not as I would have it,
Trusting that You will make all things right,
If I surrender to Your will,
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
And supremely happy with You forever in the next.
The entire staff of CiN Weekly was laid off as well as Peter Bronson and David Wells.
