Humble yourself and reproach yourself. Do not justify yourself, even if you are absolutely right, for self-justification is not conducive to the healing of our spiritual illness.
If you want to be fragrant, embrace a
humble, simple, obedient, and meek spirit. Despise egotism as a stench and
stupidity. You do very well to reproach yourself in everything. This path is
most true to the Fathers. Yes, my child, implant this manner of life deeply
within your dear little soul and you will benefit enormously.

Counsels from the Holy mountain
