Whoever assumes that the serenity prayer is designed only for alcoholics is depriving a whole lot of non alcoholics of a potent does of Spirit empowering medicine.
We are all drunkards looking for our Spirit and until Spirit get what it wants from us we might as well resolve to stay drunk on ignorance or choose to get sober from getting high on the earth existence where body and mind think they are it and invite Spirit to empower us even while still traversing this planet.
Whoever first composed the serenity prayer must have been drunk or crazy over God and that was a good place to be for s/he must have been having an Ecclesiastes eclipse and may very well have been at the point of feeling like St Francis of Assisi or maybe even Moses.
Though I know and medicate on them both, the serenity prayer always leap up front when either of them is needed. I am not going to ask God about that. I just leave well alone!
And pray the serenity prayer.
