17. PRAYER FOR GOOD HUMOR
BY ST. THOMAS MORE
+ Grant me, O Lord, good digestion, and also
something to digest.
Grant me a healthy body, and the necessary
good humor to maintain it.
Grant me a simple soul that knows to treasure
all that is good and that doesn’t frighten easily
at the sight of evil,
but rather finds the means to put things back in
their place.

18. …Give me a soul that knows not
boredom, grumblings, sighs and laments,
nor excess of stress, because of that
obstructing thing called “I.”
Grant me, O Lord, a sense of good humor.
Allow me the grace to be able to take a
joke to discover in life a bit of joy,
and to be able to share it with others.
