and investments, made by our clients. That is, we build upon our
client's preparations, including validation of their product
export viability as well as its import market opportunities.

La Plegaria de la
Serenidad
Dios, dadme la serenidad
para aceptar las cosas que no puedo cambiar;
valentía para cambiar las cosas que si puedo;
y la sabiduría para saber la diferencia.
Viviendo un día a la vez;
Disfrutando un momento a
la vez,
Aceptando las dificultades como el camino a la paz;
Tomando como El lo hizo, este mundo pecador tal como es, no como yo lo
quisiera;
Confiando que El corregirá todas las cosas
si me someto a su voluntad;
Que sea razonablemente feliz en esta vida
y supremamente feliz con El por siempre en la próxima...
una plegaria
favorita
por el gran teólogo y filosofo Americano

The 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 all things right if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever
in the next...
a favority prayer by the great American theologean and philosopher-Reinhold
Niebuhr |
