Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
  where there is injury, pardon;
  where there is doubt, faith;
  where there is despair, hope;
  where there is darkness, light;
  where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
  to be consoled as to console,
  to be loved as to love,
  to be understood as to understand.
For it is in giving that we receive,
  it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
  and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. (St. Francis of Asisi)
