"Every person in our epoch...


"...is overburdened.
Don't forget what I have already written to you:
'The curse of our age is haste.' "

~Elder Sophrony to his sister Maria
in Letters to His Family
(picture is the quotation as I wrote it in my
reading-journal).

***

I have been pondering this and finding
it gives consolation and compassion to others.

Yes, that is something to ponder.

I think it is probably more true than when he wrote that. Thank you, Elizabeth.
