The Serenity Prayer is not new, although in modern times it is attributed to Reinhold Niebuhr. Epictetus had a version, the Jewish philosopher Solomon ibn Gabirol had a version, and even W.W. Bartley had a version with a Mother Goose rhyme dated 1695. The prayer is simple yet powerful:

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

Handcrafted in Thailand by really nice people. Each Gold All Weather Bangle® is made by a team of 20+ artisans, each bangle is hand made, each is a labor of love. Gold All Weather Bangles are made with organic products, at times a slight color differentiation might occur, this is only natural as humidity and temperature conditions do affect the outcome. Our Serenity Prayer Bead is made with uncoated brass which as time goes by, might develop a verdi-gris patina. Our point is that Gold All Weather Bangles are a product that will age, develop character, and will remain beautiful...just like our BuDhaGirls.

BuDhaGirl Gold All Weather Bangles are made of polyvinyl carbonate tubing that is a semi-flexible material, so there is a little give when you slide the bangles over your hand. The key to deciding your size...how the bangles go over your hand, not the size of your wrist.
