问题     "How did you do it, Dad? How have you managed to not take a drink for almost 20 years?"It took me almost 20 years to have the【C1】______to even ask my father this very personal question. When Dad first quit【C2】______, the whole family was on pins and【C3】______every time he got into a situation that, in the past, would have started him drinking again.

"The words were an instant relief and constant【C7】______to me that things were never so【C8】______that I could not handle them, " Dad said. And then he【C9】______the poem with me. The poem’s simple, yet profound words【C10】______became part of my daily routine as well.
    About a month after this talk with my father, I received a【C11】______in the mail from a friend of mine. It was a book of daily affirmations with one affirmation【C12】______for each day of the year.
    It has been my【C13】______that when you get something with days of the year on it, you automatically turn to the【C14】______that lists your own birthday.
    I hurriedly opened the book to November 10 to see what【C15】______of wisdom this book had in store for me. I did a double-take and tears of disbelief and appreciation rolled【C16】______my face. There, on my birthday, was the exact【C17】______poem that had helped my father for all these years! It is【C18】______the Serenity Prayer: God, grant me the Serenity to【C19】______the things I cannot change: the Courage to change the things I can: and the【C20】______to know the difference. Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment a time.
