“Oh friend be what you will. Cover the wide expanse by length and breadth. Satisfy your longing for position and rank, your desire for wealth and glory satisfy. In the end you will tumble exhausted, stretched in a narrow pace under the ground. Heart motionless, enveloped in silence, no throbbing and no pulse are there.” – Pope Shenouda. #coptic#orthodox#dailyreadings#popeshenouda#faith
