Bitter Quote by Anna Akhmatova
“Give me bitter years of sickness, Suffocation, insomnia, fever, Take my child and my lover, And my mysterious gift of song This I pray at your liturgy After so many tormented days, So that the stormcloud over darkened Russia Might become a cloud of glorious rays.”
![“[People] need to find words that can reconnect them with each other. That is the gift of good liturgy, yeah. We're not talking about fluffy stuff. We're talking about real life for people around the world. Our prayers should be said like the daily breath that gives us life.” quote by Shane Claiborne](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/ef0/shane-claiborne-960_around-the-world_people-need-to-find-words-that-can-recon_906206.jpg)
