orthodoxgladness:

When you expect a little from a person and accept him as he really is, with mistakes and shortcomings, then there is less frustration. No need to idealize anyone.

Archimandrite Raphael (Karelin)

That I might love my brothers and sisters for who You made them! That I could see all of your creation through Your eyes! Then all would be clear. Then all of reality would be laid out before me.

Let Your Mystery engulf me. Swallow me. That I may find Your Truth in that place.
