Geocache Description:


Martha's Addiction

Poor Martha! She has a serious problem. The first step, as with any serious addiction, is to admit that there is a problem … we haven’t reached that stage yet. Martha’s addiction comes at any time of the day…and in front of the children she teaches! Tsk, tsk, Martha.

We’ve tried to tell her, “Martha…all things in moderation.” She pretends to hear us, but we hear the creak of the tin as she turns her back on us. Martha clearly does not understand the concept.

We are hopeful, that with immediate intervention, we will be able to reach Martha. With a positive outlook, we send out this prayer to Martha:

Martha’s Serenity Prayer

God GRANT Martha the serenity to accept
the things she cannot change;
the courage to change the things she can;
and the wisdom to know the difference.
