For what purpose does the Lord add day after day, year after year, to
our existence? In order that we may gradually put away, cast aside, evil from
our souls, each one his own, and acquire blessed simplicity; in order that we
may become, for instance, gentle as lambs, simple as infants; in order that we
may learn not to have the least attachment to earthly things, but like loving,
simple children, may cling with all our hearts to God alone, and love Him with
all our hearts, all our souls, all our strength, and all our thoughts, and our
neighbor as ourselves.
Saint John of Kronstadt
