To say that times have been harsh would be an understatement. It's usually hard to even get out of bed in the morning. Things just seems to keep finding new ways of smacking me in the back of the head. I've found myself thinking back to my great aunt, how she use to do things and say things. I have never met a more loving or kind soul than her. And I have felt like talking with her about my problems.
Yesterday after prayer, I was looking at my icons and I was thinking about being able to sit down and talk with one of them. It was a curious thoughts and one that made me wonder. When I was new to Orthodoxy, I had looked towards Ignatious. But now that I am longer in the faith and face these trials and tribulations, I find I want to talk with one about simpler things. Of course Paisios comes to mind in this case.
So my fun Lent question is, which Saint would you like to sit down with and have a conversation? Why?
