“My mind tells me that even the animals are better
than me; so, I humble myself and obey them. Very early this morning, being
tired from praying all night and exhausted because of my illness, I lay down to
rest. After a while, I heard a kitten meowing outside my cell as if she needed
something. I really wanted to rest, but I humbled myself and went against my
own will. I obeyed the kitten and replied to her calling. I went to open the
door. It had started to rain and I let her in so she wouldn’t get wet. What do
you think then? Should I obey the animals or not? My thoughts tell me I should.” - St
Paisios
