1. My God give me courage My God, give me the courage to live three hundred sixty-five days and nights, all empty of your presence. Give me the courage to consider this as an empty fullness. Make me be Your humble lover, intertwined to you in ecstasy. Make sure I can speak to this gap and receive tremendous response maternal love that nurtures and packs. Make sure I have the courage to love Thee, Thy hate without harm to my soul and my body. Make the loneliness I do not destroy. Make my loneliness I serve as a company. Make sure I have the courage to face me. Make me know stay with nothing and still feel like you're full of it. Get in your arms my sin of thinking. Clarice Lispector
