ANGER AND COURAGE

"Hope has two beautiful daughters.
Their names are Anger and Courage,"
said Saint Augustine.

Anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain as they are."

Certainly two eneimies of Anger and Courage
are Contentment and Sloth: ignoring the inequities and poverties of the world, blindly failing
to make a difference.

Helkp me, Lord, to see the world as it is,
and to do what I can do to make it better.

No, I can't change the world, not the whole world, but I can do my small part, and together with people of good will everywhere, Yes,
we can change the world.

Give me the courage to see what I can do, and do it. Give me the courage to take hands with others, and we can make a difference.

Amen
