00:00:03
baptized how one man in the war00:00:07
met with a saint this amazing00:00:12
story I recently heard from a00:00:15
war veteran from Petrozavodsk00:00:17
his name is Dmitry Aleksandrovich Moskalev00:00:20
he is ninety-seven years old I asked him00:00:25
to tell this story in detail and in00:00:27
response he himself from hands wrote it down00:00:31
and so the war00:00:35
Kiev was liberated, the00:00:39
Korsun-Shevchenko operation of00:00:41
liquidating the encircled German troops continues and00:00:44
suddenly next to the 21-year-old00:00:48
platoon commander of the rifle regiment Dmitry Mask on the00:00:51
left00:00:53
in one night attack a mine exploded almost next to me, covered with00:00:56
frozen00:01:00
earth, stunned me, I lost consciousness and00:01:03
woke up when it had already begun to get light, I could00:01:06
n’t feel my legs, with the help of local grandparents00:01:10
we got to them and you could barely take off00:01:13
your boots, my legs were frostbitten in the evening,00:01:18
orderlies came and took me to a field00:01:21
medical station, and the next day they00:01:24
sent me by car towards Kiev00:01:26
again Kiev in the Kiev hospital they wanted00:01:30
to amputate my legs at the knees, I did not00:01:33
consent to this operation, they loaded an00:01:36
ambulance train, so I arrived in the city of00:01:40
Tambov for00:01:41
two months, I lay in the ward, they00:01:45
only did bandages, my legs did not heal, the00:01:49
chief doctor of the hospital, in a conversation with me,00:01:52
told me that there are former doctors in the city00:01:54
who help the wounded a lot in00:01:57
private style00:01:58
in the cathedral is served by an experienced former doctor, a00:02:02
surgeon, he often consulted, even00:02:05
operated on patients,00:02:07
if I invite him for a consultation,00:02:11
you won’t mind, of course I gave my00:02:14
consent, just save my legs,00:02:19
literally the next day I was taken to the00:02:22
operating room, a very elderly man of00:02:25
short stature with a beard and a bespectacled00:02:27
man in a white robe00:02:29
and under the robe I noticed black church00:02:32
clothes, it was a clergyman of the00:02:35
Tambov diocese whom I had previously00:02:37
seen through the window of the hospital when he was going00:02:40
to the cathedral for a service,00:02:42
people greeted him joyfully, crossed themselves,00:02:46
extended their hands to him, he began to00:02:49
examine, touch, tingle with something00:02:53
my legs were sharp, questioning00:02:56
me and the doctors in detail,00:02:58
after that he said that there could be00:03:01
gangrene and that it was necessary to clean off the00:03:05
dead tissue,00:03:06
I agreed to this operation the next00:03:12
day, he came again before the operation, he00:03:15
explained to me00:03:16
that it would be very painful to cut off the dead tissue without00:03:20
anesthesia00:03:25
you can tolerate screaming but don’t swear, I’m00:03:29
a priest and I can’t stand it, he crossed00:03:32
me and started the operation, it was very00:03:37
painful, but at first I endured it, gritting my teeth,00:03:41
then I started screaming and lost consciousness, I do00:03:44
n’t remember anything else,00:03:48
I woke up in the ward on my bed, after00:03:52
that my legs began to heal quickly.00:03:54
new skin00:03:57
began to do dressings more often, my00:04:01
mood improved, I wanted to get up, tried to get up, but00:04:05
then fell on the bed, somehow I00:04:08
asked00:04:09
what kind of doctor performed the operation on me, why did he00:04:13
serve the cathedral, they told me that he was a00:04:16
famous surgeon,00:04:18
especially in plastic surgery,00:04:21
he had a beloved wife who had a hard time00:04:25
fell ill and despite the measures taken, it was00:04:27
not possible to save her, then he renounced00:04:31
medicine and went to serve God to help00:04:36
people during the Patriotic War,00:04:38
to help wounded soldiers,00:04:41
only later did I find out that my savior,00:04:44
Saint Luke in the world, Valentin Feliksovich00:04:48
Vovo-Yasenetsky professor spiritual00:04:52
writer political prisoners past00:04:54
prisons links00:04:56
torture famous doctor talented00:04:59
preacher sometimes00:05:01
rushed between two ranks began00:05:05
to take00:05:06
paraffin baths to develop joints00:05:09
on a bicycle and other physical equipment00:05:13
began to walk, first with crutches then with00:05:16
passion, soon Dmitry Alexandrovich will00:05:21
be declared unfit for military service, there00:05:24
will be more years ahead working on00:05:27
recovery00:05:28
daily skiing bicycle00:05:31
to restore mobility to his joints and00:05:34
today, at 97 years old, he moves on00:05:39
his own legs, it was scary to know exactly00:05:46
why I would die,00:05:47
how my life could turn upside down in one day,00:05:53
let's go out, Katerina Borisovna, the00:05:57
therapist, big-eyed and smiling, was00:06:01
clearly upset, we left the room into the00:06:04
corridor, but not into a small one room00:06:07
I thought, I always thought that the00:06:11
worst news was reported in a small00:06:13
room, Katerina Borisovna pushed the00:06:16
nurse's door, their00:06:20
small room, you have hepatitis,00:06:24
Nastya, that's a birthday present,00:06:28
I thought, and the world became small and cramped, it00:06:33
fit neatly into the nurse's room,00:06:36
filled with IV stands and00:06:39
crutches in dense rows tablets and00:06:42
syringes and the smell of bleach and what kind of00:06:48
hepatitis is it curable00:06:52
frailty hepatitis B it can be suppressed00:06:58
but it is not curable Katerina Borisovna there ca00:07:02
n’t be mistakes, the therapist00:07:06
was spotty on this day your test00:07:11
was 1 out of 1200:07:14
11 negative there is a small chance but00:07:19
tomorrow we’ll do a test blood sampling00:07:22
separately from everyone else, the corridor has never00:07:27
seemed so long to me,00:07:29
and my own birthday was inappropriate,00:07:33
lying in the ward on a drip, I tried00:07:37
to figure out where I could have caught viruses, how to00:07:41
tell my husband a manicure, a00:07:44
cosmetologist, a dentist, for some reason I thought00:07:49
only together in sorrow and in joy, strange00:07:54
but sorrow I imagined it a little00:07:57
differently, Sergei, they found00:08:02
hepatitis B, I’m sure that this is a mistake, I00:08:07
hope, but I would like your confidence that00:08:11
I won’t be able to come for you, and I00:08:17
need to double-check, maybe it’s really a00:08:21
mistake, to tell the truth, it was hard to believe, or00:08:24
rather, I couldn’t believe it with the whole house it was00:08:29
quiet on the table there was a huge bouquet00:08:33
and next to it there was a box with a treasured inscription,00:08:36
I sat down next to him, took the box in my hands and00:08:40
roared for the first time in my life, an expensive gift did00:08:43
not make me happy, but made me angry because I00:08:46
realized that my life could end00:08:49
before his,00:08:51
you blogs anger, resentment and the desire to00:08:55
run along the main street of the city with a00:08:57
banner terminally ill, I decided to00:09:01
read what I was sentenced to; the00:09:05
reading seemed fascinating but not00:09:08
very joyful; it was a little reassuring00:09:11
that if you follow simple rules, you can00:09:14
stretch out for quite a long time without cancer and00:09:17
cirrhosis; thoughts were confused; emotions completely00:09:22
started to dance wildly and all that00:09:24
remained was gather the remnants of will into a00:09:27
fist and wait for a re-analysis00:09:32
on Monday on that very day X we00:09:36
flew to Italy for a long-awaited vacation00:09:40
that has now become tasteless, as if00:09:43
tap water was00:09:45
comforting, just give that fear of illness00:09:48
completely replaced the fear of flying00:09:53
plane news no airport00:09:59
customs news no coffee00:10:04
news no news the train00:10:08
turns out when you're waiting for a signal from a00:10:11
message louder than a fire siren,00:10:14
positive I'm sick with a00:10:20
99.9 percent probability my mouth became dry and my00:10:27
eyes were wet, although it seems like it should be00:10:30
the other way around, it turns out the worst thing in00:10:34
life is to know exactly what you're going to die from, not00:10:39
hypotheticals from old age, but like this and00:10:42
even if it wasn’t tomorrow, it was00:10:47
empty and cold inside, it wasn’t spring, the00:10:52
embankment was crowded with cute teeth and there was a00:10:56
very loud smell of the sea, iodine, fried00:11:01
fish and fresh bread, despite the00:11:04
sad thoughts, I wanted to soak up every00:11:07
minute00:11:08
after spending the whole day in a senseless00:11:11
wandering around the city.00:11:12
this is the best way to get to know him,00:11:14
I almost forgot about the white paper with the inscription00:11:19
positive evenings00:11:23
in the hotel room for the first time in a long time,00:11:26
I wanted to pray00:11:28
not on duty because believers are00:11:31
supposed to pray, but for real00:11:34
I read our teaching as if for the first time, not00:11:37
with my lips but with my heart let's get down on our knees, I00:11:40
wanted to pray for healing00:11:43
for the sake of the children, for the sake of my mother,00:11:46
who would hardly have stoically endured the00:11:48
news of my illness, but instead, I00:11:53
suddenly burst out, thank you,00:11:57
Lord, my00:11:59
thoughts couldn’t keep up with the words, thank00:12:03
you, Lord, thank you for the day I’ve lived,00:12:06
thank you for the illness, a chance to change my life00:12:09
life doesn’t matter to me00:12:12
from now on, how important it is to me, how with00:12:17
gratitude and humility I accept your will00:12:22
with the last word, despair00:12:26
and fear left my soul again, it was wet in my eyes, but also00:12:31
in my mouth, when people find out about the00:12:35
inevitable, they lose the taste of life as00:12:38
delicious as during these six days of vacation I00:12:41
had never been to coffee, the00:12:45
water-air of the mountains and the sea, everything was delicious,00:12:51
as if the power of the receptors had been turned to00:12:55
the maximum and next to me was a man whom 1700:12:59
years ago I promised to be with him in sorrow00:13:01
and in joy and whom I loved as much as on my00:13:05
wedding day I00:13:06
was happy and didn’t try to understand00:13:10
what exactly I had to change now00:13:13
this very second,00:13:14
I knew my time would come and despite the00:13:20
fact that now I was limited in time, I00:13:22
just calmly waited. On Saturday we00:13:27
flew home and on Sunday00:13:29
we went to the service standing in the temple,00:13:33
I was finally not mechanical I repeated this in00:13:35
chanting words of prayer and passed through my00:13:38
heart there was an amazing feeling of00:13:42
peace and joy in my soul,00:13:45
as if not a disgusting virus had settled inside me,00:13:47
but something magical.00:13:51
Approaching the cross,00:13:53
I looked towards the choir and00:13:55
suddenly thought, why am I not there?00:14:00
The service ended,00:14:02
I went up to my mother and asked what it takes to00:14:05
become a singer, you need a00:14:09
desire to learn with a smile, she said00:14:12
now I knew exactly what I wanted and what00:14:15
changes awaited me in life,00:14:17
it’s time, my time to start living for00:14:21
real, not in rough drafts, without rewriting,00:14:25
answering for every mistake, time00:14:29
of duty prayers00:14:30
time believe it's time to be grateful for every00:14:35
day we live On Monday, our whole00:14:39
family went to the laboratory against00:14:42
hepatitis, my husband and children were vaccinated, they00:14:46
could well be healthy and it was necessary to00:14:49
confirm this before vaccination,00:14:51
I don’t know why I donated blood again,00:14:55
just for company on Tuesday morning00:14:59
I rang the signal came, the results, my hands00:15:04
trembled treacherously and my heart decided to00:15:07
dance the cancan, my00:15:10
daughter negatively thank you, Lord,00:15:14
son, negatively, thank you, Lord,00:15:19
husband, negatively, thank you,00:15:24
my Lord, why open it anyway, I’m00:15:28
negative, and in a moment it became dark and then00:15:35
they turned on the light in my head, then in00:15:39
the kitchen, then throughout the whole house and then they turned on the lights00:15:43
all over the world and it was so bright that it00:15:45
became difficult to breathe and life became easy,00:15:49
thank you God, I told00:15:54
this non-fictional story to friends and00:15:57
acquaintances, someone silently hugged me tightly00:16:01
so that without words everything was clear, someone00:16:05
emotionally verbosely sympathized with00:16:09
someone00:16:10
tired shrugged their shoulders saying well what do you00:16:13
want00:16:14
domestic medicine but I knew one thing the00:16:18
true meaning of something you can understand00:16:21
only by passing it through yourself00:16:24
I thank you no for the mistake I don’t believe in it and00:16:30
you can’t call what00:16:33
happens a mistake at the right time in the right place00:16:36
and with the right person00:16:39
I needed it I thank God for00:16:49
giving me the opportunity to see my00:16:52
path to know humility00:16:55
for an ordinary miracle to be grateful for00:16:59
everything for everyone for my new life life00:17:06
for real00:17:11
suddenly upon us from the darkness a00:17:14
shaggy monster emerged, an incident from my00:17:18
wife and I’s life, it was in the eighties, I was00:17:25
then working as an assistant driller at a00:17:28
base in Arkhangelsk, I came home to00:17:32
St. Petersburg from a summer expedition and was preparing for the00:17:36
main winter evening, my wife and I were about to00:17:41
give birth in a month, we went to the cinema,00:17:44
we came out cinema already late at night we were00:17:47
walking down the street and suddenly out of the darkness a00:17:50
shaggy monster came towards us, not something00:17:53
short, square,00:17:55
overgrown and foul-smelling,00:17:59
and the monster said to eat, it00:18:03
turned out to be a man who had lost his normal00:18:06
appearance due to a multi-day binge, my wife00:18:08
was scared, and I’m a simple person, a rose in00:18:11
the village, I say00:18:12
let's go feed at home, my wife looked at00:18:17
our guest with disgusted apprehension, I00:18:21
told her to sit in another room and she00:18:24
obeyed, and I told the monster to take off his00:18:28
clothes on the threshold and stomp into the bathroom while00:18:31
he was washing, I slowly threw out his00:18:34
ruined rags and picked up a lot00:18:37
of my sports things later00:18:40
They fed this man and left him to spend00:18:43
the night, but how could he not leave him in the morning? He00:18:47
asked for money for the trip, he said that00:18:49
he was working in the north on an expedition, which00:18:53
means I usually trust people, I gave him 50000:18:57
rubles, a lot of money in those days, but00:19:01
I also earned good money, I gave it easily,00:19:04
but my wife couldn’t understand how could I00:19:07
give such a sum to someone else's, to put it mildly,00:19:11
dubious type, it would be better if I bought it for her,00:19:15
well, I gave it away and gave it back, a00:19:19
year and a half passed, I was returning00:19:24
from the expedition, we had a transfer at the00:19:28
airport, I hear Sasha Sanya in the distance,00:19:30
something like that, you00:19:35
never know who paid attention to whom he suddenly shouts, I see00:19:39
some kind of gorilla bar flying at me, a shaggy00:19:43
fur hat in high boots, jumps00:19:47
over the seats, flies up, hugs,00:19:50
says it was our overnight guest,00:19:54
I didn’t recognize him, but I will never00:19:58
forget the look of your wife, he said and00:20:02
handed over a bag with three boxes keep00:20:05
it to her,00:20:07
I took it, I didn’t even look at the house there, he00:20:12
gave it to his wife, saying it was a gift for you, she went00:20:15
into the room with him in five minutes, they fly out00:20:17
with joyful cries, throw themselves on my00:20:19
neck, kisses, hugs Sanya, Sonechka, on the way, there00:20:25
were gold jewelry in these boxes00:20:29
at that time.00:20:32
and luxury, yes, it’s not me who admitted,00:20:38
I was embarrassed,00:20:39
remember that homeless man whom we sheltered00:20:42
at night, I gave him more money for the journey from and I didn’t00:20:46
believe that he was working north,00:20:50
he gave it to you, my wife didn’t believe it for a long time, and00:20:53
when I came to my senses,00:20:56
I had no need to lie perplexed,00:21:00
is it really impossible to judge a person00:21:04
by his clothes00:21:08
thought00:21:09
jim desperate and want to do eco00:21:13
what the priest answered the woman and what00:21:16
happened then one day after Sunday00:21:22
service00:21:23
I was in a hurry to film a TV program but00:21:26
a parishioner Father Nikolai caught me at the door00:21:28
I can’t do this anymore for00:21:32
seven years it hasn’t worked we can get pregnant, we are00:21:35
desperate and want to do00:21:38
in vitro fertilization, I went00:21:42
to an old man for advice, I waited a long time,00:21:44
but he never talked to me, they00:21:47
only gave me his answer no, I started00:21:52
talking to her about the spiritual risks00:21:54
associated with about realizing that I00:21:58
was depriving her of her last hopes of becoming a mother00:22:01
Well, what else can a priest do00:22:04
besides consolation? To compromise, I00:22:09
looked at the unhappy woman and inside00:22:13
everything was compressed from grief and injustice,00:22:16
but what else to say and I no longer knew, and00:22:20
besides, it was time for me to go,00:22:23
leaving, I blessed her, saying to myself,00:22:27
let it be according to your words, however,00:22:32
despite the haste, I headed to the altar,00:22:35
I don’t know why, my heart just pulled and00:22:38
at the same time the story of00:22:42
St. Anne, the mother of the Old Testament00:22:45
prophet Samuel, came to mind,00:22:46
she was old and childless, everyone00:22:51
laughed at her, although she was not a00:22:53
sinner, she cried in the temple00:22:56
so the priest either introduced her at first,00:22:59
deciding that she was drunk, but having learned about her00:23:04
grief and the sight of the faith of a brave woman, or00:23:08
said go, God give you according to your word,00:23:15
oh, how not easy for a priest to say00:23:19
such words, it turns out the priest00:23:22
promised her a miracle, I stood at the altar and still00:23:26
nothing I couldn’t calm down00:23:28
suddenly she decided to and to and then couldn’t00:23:31
cope with the feeling of guilt I began to00:23:34
pray and ended the prayer with the same00:23:38
words or I let it be according to00:23:42
your word I was very scared00:23:45
to say them it felt like00:23:48
you were crossing an invisible line00:23:50
strange but all week I I didn’t remember about00:23:54
it, it just slipped out of my head, but then00:23:57
she came to the temple again for confession and we00:24:01
cried, she was crying from the news about the00:24:05
pregnancy00:24:06
and I was in shock, what great miracles00:24:09
God performs before your eyes, what is00:24:14
this story about for me about the ability00:24:18
to trust God and not be offended by him00:24:21
when everything doesn’t go the way you00:24:23
want00:24:24
about the ability to trust God even when00:24:27
it seems that there is no way out I00:24:34
had a prestigious job in Moscow and I00:24:38
turned into a monster how a person00:24:42
radically changed his life00:24:46
this story00:24:48
began when I was still a teenager 1600:24:52
years old, I fell in love with an artist, my mother00:24:54
was indignant, I rebelled and moved to00:24:58
live with him,00:24:59
youthful maximalism was superimposed on00:25:02
my already violent character from the desire00:25:06
to do everything the other way around and refused to00:25:09
enroll in architecture and continue00:25:11
making families00:25:13
as my mother dressed and began to prepare for00:25:16
Stroganovka00:25:17
the spirit of freedom of creativity all this it was for00:25:22
me, as one would expect, my00:25:26
relationship with my lover would soon00:25:28
come to an end, a painful breakup,00:25:31
failure in exams, no opportunity to00:25:35
return to my mother, in general, complete00:25:38
discord in life, and in this00:25:41
state of mind my believing friend found me00:25:43
and took me by the hand to the temple there in00:25:49
line At confession, I accidentally looked00:25:51
into a book someone had opened to help a00:25:55
penitent and realized with horror that by the00:25:59
age of 17 I had accomplished almost00:26:02
most of what was listed there. That’s how00:26:05
my churching began,00:26:08
I read the gospel and was delighted with00:26:12
how you can read the gospel and remain an00:26:16
unbeliever, I asked one of my friends, I do00:26:19
n’t know and I’ve never read the Gospel,00:26:23
she answered for 18 years, I met00:26:28
my future husband, a00:26:30
pure, honest, very kind but absolutely00:26:35
non-church man, my religiosity00:26:39
seemed like a whim to him, we lived for two years without00:26:43
getting married and that’s all For two years I didn’t00:26:48
cross the threshold of the church, I cried at night, I00:26:51
realized that this was wrong, but that00:26:54
I didn’t want to give up such a life, which means I did00:26:57
n’t have the right to receive communion,00:26:59
somehow I went into the church,00:27:01
fell on my knees and prayed to00:27:05
God, I promise you we’ll get married and we’ll get00:27:09
married, I’m going nowhere I won’t leave him00:27:13
after that for a week I walked around gritting my teeth,00:27:17
then I finally talked to my00:27:21
boyfriend at that time, I was expecting00:27:24
anything but not what00:27:27
I heard and I just wanted to propose to you,00:27:32
most of all he was afraid that by becoming his legal00:27:36
wife I I will turn into a grymza with a00:27:39
frying pan on our wedding day, he00:27:43
gave me a bow and arrows and then I00:27:47
took up fencing to direct00:27:49
energy in the right direction, since then the emblem of00:27:53
our couple has become the image of a knight on a horse00:27:56
I am a knight and with a sword performing feats00:28:01
he horse is the faithful companion of a knight00:28:05
in throughout all his adventures, this model00:28:08
turned out to be very stable; however, after00:28:12
marriage, the temptation did not decrease; I00:28:15
studied at Stroganovka and worked in00:28:18
design; my male colleagues liked me and I was00:28:22
amorous by nature; it was difficult, thank00:28:26
God that I didn’t do anything stupid, but the more00:28:30
successful my career went,00:28:32
the harder it was for me It was impossible to combine worldly and00:28:36
spiritual life, they began to entrust me with00:28:39
responsible and difficult tasks, and in my00:28:43
life there was almost no place left for prayer and00:28:46
church,00:28:47
work simply burned out my desire to00:28:50
pray and go to church, and when I00:28:54
took communion00:28:55
and felt the joy of unity with Christ,00:28:57
I felt sick of my jobs where00:29:01
I could, in order to achieve my goal,00:29:04
shout out of command, I’m a maximalist, I00:29:10
feel comfortable only when00:29:13
I give myself over, I do it completely, many manage00:29:17
to combine a career with church life, I00:29:21
couldn’t,00:29:22
I was tormented by my own vanity and00:29:26
pride,00:29:27
which blossomed in full bloom at work,00:29:29
I became very cruel there, they were00:29:34
afraid of me and they obeyed, I felt that00:29:38
I was turning into a monster, but my soul00:29:41
wanted something completely different;00:30:04
I read and abba Dorotheus00:30:07
and John Chrysostom and John the Climacus00:30:10
and really wanted to put into practice what00:30:14
they teach, I decided to become a sister of00:30:18
mercy,00:30:19
my Orthodox parish in Sklyf was00:30:23
part of a large community of the Church of the Holy00:30:26
Blessed Prince Demetrius at the00:30:28
first city hospital in Moscow, among the00:30:31
parishioners of this temple was Sister00:30:34
Lyudochka was always smiling in the church, she00:30:37
was the regent's food and cook, and then she went around to00:30:41
all the dying, calmed, consoled,00:30:44
brought the priest to them, I00:30:49
looked at her and thought, but what is00:30:52
worth doing, all my design00:30:54
projects00:30:55
are nothing compared to this, my work is like a00:31:00
computer game entertains, captivates, but you00:31:03
can’t spend your whole life on this, and00:31:06
if Father Vasily, the then00:31:10
rector of the hospital church, had been00:31:12
the only spiritual authority for me, I00:31:15
would have already become a nurse at the age of 22,00:31:17
but there was00:31:20
another priest00:31:22
whose opinion I listened to and he did00:31:26
not support On his impulse and it was his00:31:30
advice that00:31:31
I decided to follow, although I was very00:31:34
upset, but I had to finish00:31:37
Stroganovka,00:31:38
still work in my former00:31:40
profession, go through all the suffering associated00:31:43
with the fact that my husband and I did not have children to00:31:45
go through and to mourn the death of00:31:49
embryos to remain in the ashes and only00:31:52
then did I00:31:53
consciously come to the ministry spiritually,00:31:57
having matured for this, I felt like a butcher00:32:02
whose hands were up to his elbows in blood. In the00:32:04
summer of 2011, the community of the Church of St.00:32:09
Tsarevich Demetrius was preparing for a00:32:11
joyful event, that very little girl00:32:15
was getting married, the groom was a sailor, a00:32:19
sea captain, they asked me to00:32:22
put on a play for us. on the scarlet00:32:25
sail and play Captain Gray as a00:32:28
child, I studied in a theater00:32:29
studio and many knew about my passion for00:32:32
theater. Of course, I was surprised, but I agreed and on the00:32:37
day of the premiere I met Bishop00:32:40
Pantilimon, the step leader of all00:32:44
our church charity and00:32:46
social service, and it was one of the00:32:49
most happy days in my life and00:32:52
now when Vladyka comes to our00:32:55
almshouse, this feeling returns,00:32:58
apparently he has the gift of creating00:33:02
such an atmosphere next to him,00:33:05
then in the sklifa, at the request of Father00:33:08
Vasily, I staged another performance, a00:33:11
candle00:33:13
from the Holy Sepulcher, I played in it again the00:33:16
male role of a knight is the size and it became00:33:21
fatal for me00:33:24
at this performance I burned out and as an00:33:27
artist I could no longer engage in00:33:29
creativity and this coincided with the end00:33:32
of Stroganovka which sucked all the strength out of me00:33:35
after six years of sleepless nights and00:33:38
terrible stress,00:33:42
I began to feel depressed feeling depressed,00:33:46
devastated, deprived of vital00:33:48
energy and joy, I went to the doctor,00:33:54
started taking pills and then the doctor00:33:58
asked me why you don’t have children, I00:34:03
really wanted to give birth and00:34:06
raise a large family, they began to examine00:34:10
the problem, it was found, we were told that00:34:13
everything can be solved with the help of eco00:34:15
I was faced with the question of listening to my husband00:34:19
and going to the IVF00:34:20
or reconciling myself and accepting00:34:24
our infertility in a Christian way, and then00:34:29
that same knight’s manner woke up in me00:34:31
and threw off the blues, wrote on the wall with00:34:35
many sorrows, we must enter the00:34:39
kingdom of heaven and went for a puncture before the00:34:44
convulsions, good city of her, these words from the00:34:48
group king and jester00:34:50
best describe my state at that time00:34:52
while we were doing IVF and finding out00:34:56
that embryos were dying without interruption, I00:35:00
felt like a butcher whose00:35:03
hands were up to his elbows in blood when 1 died, I00:35:07
cried and prayed to God, please00:35:11
let him survive at least 1 out of 3, the time had come for the00:35:15
second attempt, I understood that I would00:35:18
not survive another loss and decided to go00:35:21
to a school for foster parents. If the 2nd00:35:23
embryo dies, I will take an adopted child, and00:35:26
then if the third one also dies, I00:35:29
will have consolation and I will not go crazy with00:35:32
grief, and if he survives00:35:35
I will have two children and suddenly I have a00:35:39
dream I had a son and00:35:43
his name is Egorka00:35:44
why exactly Egorka oh yes my name day00:35:49
May 6, the day of St. George the Victorious,00:35:51
patron saint of knights, in the morning I told my husband00:35:55
we will have a son Egorka and went to take a00:36:00
pregnancy test test it turned out to be00:36:02
positive, it was a miracle,00:36:06
but at 12 weeks they took me to the Botkin00:36:10
hospital for00:36:11
placental abruption, God, you gave me this00:36:16
joy, so can you really take00:36:19
it away now? I thought I arrived at the00:36:21
emergency department,00:36:24
standing with heavy sistine bags, where I00:36:27
began to be indignant, and then I looked around00:36:31
and saw who was with me. in line,00:36:34
one had a broken skull, another had a stroke,00:36:37
I was on completely equal terms with them,00:36:41
and the thought that my child had no00:36:45
more right to life than these people and00:36:47
we were all in the hands of God00:36:49
really calmed me down. Sometimes it00:36:55
overwhelmed me and it was scary and not I wanted to00:36:57
run away somewhere in 2015, I gave birth to00:37:02
a son,00:37:03
and a year later, when I had the00:37:06
opportunity to leave the child for an hour a00:37:08
week, I volunteered for00:37:11
psychiatry00:37:12
at the first city hospital in Moscow, even00:37:16
then I felt serving Christ00:37:20
through helping the sick, this is my00:37:22
gratitude to God for the happiness of being a00:37:25
mother and I easily found a common language with00:37:29
these people with senility and00:37:32
schizophrenic tendencies, a strange00:37:35
person is the norm for me,00:37:37
I am strange myself, I felt00:37:41
on the same wavelength with them, I sang00:37:43
songs for them, drew them, staged a00:37:46
puppet show, they performed the king again and00:37:49
I felt so good, but there were also difficulties:00:37:55
once I tried to sit up a bedridden person and00:37:58
tore off my back, I should have realized it was00:38:02
too late, first take a00:38:04
three-month course for volunteers and00:38:07
learn basic nursing skills,00:38:09
and then for the first time in00:38:12
practice I felt what00:38:15
diapers are, the smell of old age and illness and00:38:19
I thought and you held it,00:38:23
it was 2017, I then continued to00:38:28
wash the floors and change diapers one day of the week00:38:31
in the first city, and for three00:38:34
days I worked in the same place in the office00:38:38
for this reason, I left maternity leave early in00:38:43
the summer, they began to prepare me for the third and00:38:47
final embryo transfer,00:38:49
but the attempt was unsuccessful,00:38:54
now I’ll definitely go, everything was under construction Erde00:38:56
thought I then I met the00:39:00
senior sister of mercy of St.00:39:03
Spiridon Nevskoe almshouse and when I went00:39:06
to the interview I was very afraid and she00:39:09
looked at my profile and said I00:39:12
don’t understand anything, you have such an education, such a00:39:15
job, husband, son, you volunteer I keep00:39:19
saying that and still I’m here, you want00:39:23
more, yes I always want more, after00:39:28
this conversation peace reigned in my soul.00:39:31
I left the office again this time00:39:34
for good and decided to go to nursing00:39:37
courses, but during Lent I became depressed, it seems like I’m00:39:42
studying as I wanted in the courses. helping00:39:44
regularly as a volunteer,00:39:46
Egorka is growing, but I’m still missing something, I00:39:50
find out that in the almshouse they need00:39:53
sister’s assistants, I learned this in nursing00:39:56
courses, I started doing an internship,00:40:01
I was so tired, I even00:40:02
got sick, there was a big risk of leaving the00:40:06
race, sometimes I was overcome by terrible00:40:10
despondency, I wanted to go somewhere. something to run away,00:40:13
but after everything that I had been through, I understood that00:40:17
this is what I needed,00:40:20
this is what brings me back to life. I have00:40:25
never felt the joy and beauty of00:40:27
life so keenly. At first, I became00:40:31
terribly bored more than once, but I gritted my teeth and00:40:35
endured the difficulties. I left the00:40:37
almshouse and realized that never in such a00:40:40
country. I felt the joys and beauty of00:40:42
life and returned home00:40:45
exhausted and happy. I again began to00:40:49
write landscapes, scripts,00:40:51
poems, songs. Here in the almshouse,00:40:56
my creative powers were released. Among the00:40:59
sisters, there were many creative people,00:41:03
someone studied to be a cultural scientist, someone00:41:06
graduated from theater, and when I saw00:41:09
that my abilities00:41:10
went to the benefit of the almshouse, my00:41:13
panic period ended and the puzzle00:41:17
fell into place. The almshouse for me is the center of a living00:41:22
Christian life without it, how to be00:41:26
an example to my son,00:41:28
how to force myself to get up early, go to00:41:31
church, force myself to work for the sake of my00:41:33
neighbor, but as a rule, it turns out that this is exactly what00:41:37
needs to be done. It’s the last00:41:40
thing you want00:41:41
and the almshouse gives me this opportunity,00:41:48
our children were taken away from their money and started to be00:41:52
beaten. A terrible story that I00:41:55
remember with gratitude. This story00:42:00
happened to me many years ago when00:42:04
I was still a child. We, Andrey Seryoga &00:42:09
Vasya, were not good boys, we00:42:12
liked it. danger liked to call names00:42:15
and then run away, and we also liked to00:42:18
explore an abandoned brick factory, a00:42:21
landfill under bridges in a swamp, the territory of a00:42:25
garage cooperative filled with00:42:27
old batteries,00:42:29
we were seriously afraid only of a gang of reeds,00:42:33
they were so called for their childish manner of00:42:35
setting fire to brown cigars and00:42:37
cattail inflorescences and running around with them the00:42:40
yards00:42:41
stank of smoke, they swore obscenities,00:42:45
took away the kids' toys, bicycles,00:42:48
small change and handed out punches,00:42:51
and then one day in the vacant lot where we00:42:55
were hanging out, a tractor suddenly froze and00:42:57
blew up some ditch there,00:43:00
listen, look after the equipment00:43:05
in the engine, a pot-bellied man in a cap handed00:43:07
us a couple of hundred of them, we waited00:43:11
when the good uncle disappeared from view and00:43:14
began to guard us, we rummaged in the glove compartment00:43:18
and under the foam seat we opened the00:43:22
odorous gas tank and a rusty canister of00:43:24
water, we danced on the roof of the Autobot00:43:27
and on his black nose, and there were Salabons standing there,00:43:34
it was the bear Orlik, the main reed00:43:37
named the demon, they surrounded us and searched us00:43:41
they took away our money, then we hung out with our00:43:44
hands and feet, just to feel our00:43:48
own power, they beat us anywhere,00:43:52
without thinking at all about the consequences,00:43:54
and that minors would not have jurisdiction over them,00:43:58
and their parents were00:43:59
no strangers, they thrashed us the most, the00:44:03
blond leader, the bear, without a tepco,00:44:06
the Chechen, the rest pushed and pushed us more than anyone else. They00:44:10
laughed wildly and mockingly, they considered themselves00:44:13
tough bandits, then they00:44:17
switched to the tractor, instantly00:44:20
pulled them out from under the seat and noisily00:44:23
separated the cigarettes,00:44:24
splashed water from the canister, scattered00:44:28
things from the glove compartment, and suddenly there was a scream,00:44:32
slowly sank to the ground, the bear, without00:44:36
gritted teeth, strained the00:44:38
plague, went nuts, or did I accidentally without forgiveness,00:44:45
this is Pasha00:44:47
Chubar, he’s closing the door with the plague, he didn’t00:44:51
notice the bear’s fingers and now the bear00:44:53
was rolling on the ground and howling, and then you hear the00:44:58
guys, see the boy off in the hospital,00:45:02
God forbid gangrene takes away half of your arms, just like that,00:45:06
you’ll call yourself a demon without you and a00:45:09
calm voice sounded in response to the mischief not a00:45:13
tall thin guy00:45:15
passing by on a bicycle, I told00:45:19
Peter the reeds immediately00:45:22
retreated Peter was older than us, he00:45:26
worked as a loader00:45:27
and he was also a sexton, it’s true that we were00:45:30
then very far from everything church00:45:33
and didn’t quite understand what this00:45:36
word meant, let’s take a look at the wounds, he suggested00:45:41
you still got off easy in other places they00:45:44
beat you so you need an ambulance you00:45:48
only have a few bruises it turns out00:45:51
my prayer didn’t work this time00:45:54
the beating of babies00:45:55
we didn’t understand what babies had to do with it and Peter00:46:00
told how the break-in to the ruler of the ancient00:46:03
kingdom predicted the birth of the one who00:46:06
would destroy him and the king got scared and ordered to00:46:11
kill all the children,00:46:13
and he slowly rode his bike, escorting00:46:17
us home and talked about Jesus Christ,00:46:20
who had to endure much more00:46:23
pain than ours,00:46:24
and then he seriously said that we00:46:28
shouldn’t let this go, because they stole the tractor, and they00:46:32
will think about you, and this is a husk, by00:46:35
the way, not the first since00:46:38
they come across a theft in the neighboring yard, they00:46:42
broke into a barn and beat up a drunken grandfather, let’s do00:46:45
this, I know one of the neighbors, you00:46:49
won’t name a couple of new names, and I’ll let Aunt00:46:53
Tamara know so that her husband, the00:46:56
district police officer, will interrogate them more strictly,00:47:00
we’ll see further, but in general, I’m glad to meet you,00:47:04
come see me tomorrow to the store after00:47:07
five at home, of course, they interrogated me with00:47:11
passion00:47:12
and I told everything how the00:47:15
parents of our entire beaten company were alarmed in spirit,00:47:19
the phone was ringing all evening, Andryukh and Vasya were00:47:23
taken to the hospital,00:47:25
she and Seryoga were taken to the emergency room to00:47:27
film the beatings, the next day Peter00:47:32
announced to us that the plan put into action,00:47:35
but my mother was indignant, the children were beaten, and there was00:47:40
no one to stand up for them00:47:43
except some loader, the sexton00:47:47
clarified, I waved it off even more clearly, she00:47:51
went to the police and then there was a knock on the00:47:54
door, forgive us, don’t file00:47:58
a complaint, please ask for forgiveness,00:48:00
bloodsucker, an exhausted woman stood on the threshold00:48:05
and next to us, a drunken eagle is not heroic at all,00:48:08
but pathetic, with bandaged00:48:11
fingers he drinks the life from me, you know, bear’s00:48:16
mother wailed, the bear turned00:48:20
and asked for forgiveness from this incident, the00:48:26
reeds subsided00:48:28
and then their gang and generally fell apart,00:48:31
someone came to their senses, someone went to00:48:35
Peter’s prison we met again and his favorite00:48:39
topic was faith,00:48:41
he talked interestingly about God about the00:48:44
apostles, I communicated with him more often than others00:48:48
and even learned several prayers, one of00:48:51
them is very ours. Now, as an adult,00:48:56
I understand that my childhood acquaintance with00:49:00
Peter00:49:01
began with his help in misfortune to us, strangers00:49:04
to him,00:49:05
hooligan children and subsequently brought me00:49:08
to the temple of God,00:49:11
and Father Peter himself is now a priest in one00:49:15
of the Omsk churches.00:49:19
Recently Father Peter called me and00:49:23
invited me to children's performances00:49:25
staged by the parish of the church00:49:27
where the priest is rector and dedicated to the00:49:31
events of the Great Patriotic War, I00:49:35
came to rehearsal before their00:49:37
performance at the Omsk Theological Seminary,00:49:40
I went into a class where some children were repeating00:49:44
roles and others00:49:45
were drawing one of the ready-made drawings00:49:49
especially hooked me and I took it in my00:49:53
hands to get a better look at it, it was a00:49:57
drawing of a living tractor00:50:00
covered with a blanket, depicted in a childish00:50:04
fairytale like tractor I worked hard in a field00:50:09
where daisies grew and seemed to be about to00:50:12
take a nap, covered with a blanket,00:50:16
then it turned out that it was drawn by the son of00:50:20
Peter’s father, give it to me,00:50:25
and an unfamiliar woman called my name and00:50:28
said that she had been praying for me all year, an00:50:32
uninvented story, the00:50:35
Matrona’s Church of the Moscow00:50:38
Gangway where I serve as an altar boy, very00:50:42
small,00:50:43
I would say intimate, all parishioners know00:50:46
each other by sight,00:50:47
and if new people appear, it’s00:50:50
usually those who are passing through here.00:50:53
These details are needed so that you00:50:56
can imagine the00:50:58
incredibleness of the story that00:51:01
happened to me one day after one of the00:51:05
Sunday services, a woman00:51:07
whom I had never met before approached me. I didn’t see her, she00:51:10
said, I recognize you, your name is Lyosha, and for a00:51:16
whole year now I’ve been praying for your health,00:51:18
to say that I was surprised, to say nothing,00:51:22
I was stunned and didn’t know what to00:51:27
answer,00:51:28
maybe it was some insightful woman,00:51:34
honestly, a prayer flashed through my head I really00:51:38
really needed a year then, it was difficult, I was00:51:42
taking exams and preparing to00:51:44
enter a university, so it seemed to me00:51:48
that women where did you learn about my00:51:50
difficulties and decided to prayerfully00:51:52
support seeing the confusion on my00:51:56
face, she smiled and reminded me of00:51:59
the events of a year ago, that’s what she00:52:03
told me a year ago, my sick daughter00:52:07
needed the help of Moscow doctors and00:52:10
we flew from Volgograd to the capital.00:52:13
Our two-day stay here00:52:15
happened at the time when the00:52:18
relics of St. Spyridon were delivered to the Cathedral of Christ the Savior.00:52:22
We had to go through all the doctors and00:52:25
catch the plane, so with all our00:52:29
desire it seemed impossible to get to the saint;00:52:32
the news reported about the huge queues00:52:35
that people stood00:52:37
in order to venerate, and yet we risked00:52:41
standing in line and at least praying. The00:52:46
doors of the temple were already looming somewhere nearby,00:52:50
but it was time to leave, we began to look for a00:52:55
way out, when suddenly one approached us one of the00:52:58
volunteers and offered help when he saw that00:53:02
we and the child were in wheelchairs, he00:53:05
volunteered to take us to the relics without00:53:08
a queue,00:53:09
we could not believe our happiness,00:53:14
when I remembered you well and read the00:53:17
name on the badge, all this year we did not00:53:21
stop thanking St.00:53:22
Spyridon and praying to him for you after all,00:53:26
my daughter’s health has improved and our whole00:53:29
life has somehow settled down. I didn’t expect to00:53:33
ever see you again,00:53:35
but I’m very glad to have the opportunity to thank you00:53:38
again, but in fact, a year ago the00:53:44
relics of St. Spyridon were brought to Moscow00:53:45
and a large number of pilgrims flocked from all over the country.00:53:51
I knew that volunteers were needed,00:53:55
but I managed to become an Orthodox00:53:57
volunteer for just a couple of days.00:54:00
Then, during my duty, I saw a00:54:05
woman holding a child in her arms; there was a00:54:08
wheelchair nearby;00:54:11
my duties included accompanying00:54:13
people with disabilities to the00:54:16
relics without waiting in line; that’s what I did Of course,00:54:21
I immediately forgot about this story00:54:24
because I didn’t do anything special, but00:54:27
I was amazed that people remember such00:54:30
little things done for them and thank me. I was00:54:34
amazed by how God sends us to00:54:38
each other and provides His help through00:54:41
those from someone you don’t expect it at all00:54:45
apple00:54:46
Read about the last days of my mother, how I00:54:51
saw with my own eyes what00:54:55
God’s providence is. At night, my mother was taken away by ambulance with a00:54:59
diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, and00:55:01
so began our ordeal in hospitals00:55:04
and the resuscitation of a painful trip to the00:55:08
hospital and back. My mother suffered unbearably00:55:12
yesterday. She was still in good spirits and an active elderly00:55:16
woman overnight as a00:55:18
helpless bedridden patient after00:55:22
another operation, my mother was brought to our00:55:24
house near Moscow next to the00:55:27
monastery, here life took its toll, the00:55:30
first birch leaves were shaking in the wind, the00:55:33
cherries and apple trees were blooming luxuriantly, for00:55:37
some reason I remembered how a neighbor00:55:40
brought a large plastic bucket of00:55:42
tomato seedlings,00:55:44
the plant was a perfect choice with strong00:55:47
juicy stems and elastic leaves,00:55:51
take it, it may come in handy just a bucket,00:55:55
return the seedlings we took the family of our00:55:59
confessor and a good friend from the forgetting00:56:02
whose dacha was nearby, who00:56:06
would have known that this insignificant episode with the00:56:09
seedlings would receive such a continuation, but more on that00:56:13
a little later, my mother is what is called00:56:17
real Soviet woman, the daughter of a00:56:20
communist, a physician by education and00:56:23
vocation,00:56:24
she saw the meaning of life in serving00:56:27
her family, her patients and her homeland, for example, when she learned00:56:32
that war had begun in Ukraine, her mother00:56:35
first offered to settle00:56:38
one of the Ukrainian refugees in00:56:40
her apartment, and the church looked at her, her mother00:56:45
looked at as for some small and00:56:47
interesting organization,00:56:51
changes in this regard began only00:56:54
a few years ago when my father00:56:57
took it from my mother and the first thing to fix00:57:01
after that was that she even began to go to00:57:04
church, but no more than once or twice a year,00:57:07
everything really changed when a00:57:11
serious illness came,00:57:14
now my mother was given special consolation00:57:17
once a week, a priest came to our home from a neighboring00:57:21
monastery with the holy00:57:24
gifts the day before communion, my mother00:57:28
went through the events of her past life out loud in her memory,00:57:34
repeat many times, Lord have mercy,00:57:38
she basically didn’t know any other prayers00:57:41
After receiving the Holy Mysteries of Christ,00:57:44
my mother seemed to have rested in her soul, even more00:57:49
retreated, and the room was saturated and filled with the Roman00:57:53
medicinal smells of00:57:54
incense and wax.00:57:59
One warm summer evening,00:58:03
dear guests visited us, my father00:58:05
and his mother finally brought a bucket from00:58:09
under those same seedlings,00:58:11
we drank cup of tea in the living room when00:58:14
my assistant nurse came running from my mother’s room00:58:16
and asked me to look at the00:58:19
patient,00:58:20
I found my mother unusually pale and00:58:24
quiet, she took a deep breath and00:58:28
in my arms her soul went to the Lord,00:58:31
like a bird fluttered out of a00:58:36
cage and the sufferer whose body was shocked to freedom00:58:42
I called the priest to the00:58:46
same priest who, several years00:58:48
ago,00:58:49
by the will of fate, accepted my mother’s first confession00:58:51
in church,00:58:52
now the Lord brought him to attend the00:58:56
great sacrament of the transition to another world of00:58:59
his spiritual daughter Valentina, he00:59:02
read the first litany at the bedside, the new00:59:07
presented mother was buried in a00:59:10
village cemetery00:59:12
nearby00:59:16
Three priests, including her spiritual father, drove a real Soviet woman away from the monastery and our house. I00:59:25
remember how, during the funeral service, the00:59:28
feeling of grief imperceptibly disappeared from my soul, how00:59:31
the fear of death disappeared and never returned to her, the00:59:34
inner silence of00:59:37
peace, the awareness of the great mercy and00:59:40
incomprehensible providence of God00:59:43
for everyone of us captured many of00:59:46
those present00:59:47
who, just a few years ago, could have00:59:51
said that my mother would acquire such deep00:59:54
faith that God would vouchsafe her such an00:59:58
extraordinary Christian death;01:00:01
only he, who has conquered death, knows exactly01:00:06
how at what time and under what01:00:09
circumstances01:00:11
to call each of us and each of us to himself.01:00:16
he tells us, don’t be afraid,01:00:21

Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin in a small01:01:47
cozy room there is a warm smell of wax an01:01:51
elderly woman sits in an old chair and01:01:54
knits a scarf next to her on a shag carpet,01:01:58
a girl of about eight01:02:00
eats plums and quietly hums the melodies of01:02:03
children's songs click cut thread scarves01:02:09
ready Yulechka scarf ready to use01:02:14
yet on they look at the girl affectionately and01:02:17
beckons to her oh aunt Galya01:02:20
why are the scissors so black Yulia01:02:24
looks inquiringly,01:02:25
but the object is darkened with age in01:02:28
Galina Yulenka's hands, these scissors are very01:02:33
dear to me as a memory of one01:02:35
wonderful woman who has done a01:02:38
lot of good deeds throughout her life01:02:40
Galina Yulia began her story,01:02:44
sat down more comfortably on the carpet, wrapped herself in a01:02:47
new scarf and greedily fixed her eyes on01:02:51
the narrator01:02:52
anticipating the interesting story of the show 41 years of01:03:00
war, I was about five years old on one01:03:05
cold winter evening, my brothers and01:03:08
sisters and I were sitting around my mother, my01:03:10
brother’s former coat, and01:03:13
telling each other stories,01:03:15
dad was at the front, suddenly there was a timid01:03:21
knock on the door, had01:03:22
dad really returned, I was surprised, but01:03:26
from behind, when the door opened, a woman appeared,01:03:28
wrapped in a scarf almost covering her entire01:03:32
face, she was dressed, she was poor, but01:03:36
there was snow neatly on her head and shoulders,01:03:39
oh yes, she’s just like a snowman, I thought01:03:43
and smiled with that one behind my mother’s back, my01:03:46
mother later let the guest into the house and01:03:49
sat her down by the stove we found out that her name was01:03:53
Olga,01:03:54
that the scissors she needed01:03:57
for work were stolen from her, she was a seamstress, then my mother01:04:01
sold her our scissors, which we01:04:03
rarely used, for a potato tuber,01:04:06
how we all rejoiced at her, imagine six01:04:10
children who try every day with a01:04:12
small piece of bread and water,01:04:15
we were We were exhausted and this one01:04:19
potato seemed to us like unprecedented01:04:22
wealth. Mom cooked it01:04:26
and rubbed it with something to make01:04:29
something like puree. When01:04:31
Olga left, she said that if we01:04:34
needed scissors, we could01:04:37
come to her at any time and take it.01:04:40
About two weeks have passed since then.01:04:44
I needed scissors to hem the01:04:47
skirt, they sent me to Olga, she lived01:04:51
nearby, and I01:04:53
ran to her house as quickly as my exhausted body allowed,01:04:56
and then I didn’t know what happiness was01:05:01
waiting for me inside,01:05:02
with a sinking heart, Olga knocked on the door,01:05:05
opened it, looked at me with kind01:05:08
black eyes and smiled hello check01:05:12
mark mom needs some scissors come in don't be01:05:16
shy I'll01:05:17
bring it now Olga ran into the depths of01:05:20
the house and I obediently crossed the threshold01:05:24
closed them 1 door and brushed off the01:05:27
snow from my felt boots leaned against the stove and fell asleep the01:05:32
cooling pichko01:05:33
gave me its warmth which softly01:05:37
spread over the frozen body along the back01:05:41
they ran goosebumps and I fell into sleep and a01:05:46
sweet slumber I was brought out by the quiet voice of01:05:49
Olga01:05:50
tick wake up all the happiness you will sleep through01:05:55
saying she was smiling01:05:58
I understood it even with my eyes closed there were01:06:02
bright and kind notes in her voice01:06:05
going up touching and bribing me01:06:10
when I opened my eyes and saw before01:06:15
scissors wrapped in a piece of gray fabric and a piece of sugar placed on top01:06:18
and what Olga thought was the sugar, she01:06:24
handed it to me as a jewel in her hands and01:06:26
affectionately said01:06:28
this to you, eat it in my back I01:06:35
wanted to eat very much,01:06:36
I thanked Olga, I went out the door and01:06:39
put the sugar on my tongue, enjoying01:06:44
how softly it dissolved in the mouth01:06:48
from the unusual taste, my stomach cramped01:06:51
more beautifully than that piece of sugar, I haven’t01:06:54
tried it anywhere else after a while, my01:06:58
mother needed scissors from the new one and the01:07:02
story repeated itself01:07:04
only with other food since then and01:07:08
began to run for scissors with great01:07:11
joy sometimes when I especially wanted to01:07:14
eat, I went for scissors without my mother’s request, I01:07:18
took the scissors, then01:07:20
I walked for about half an hour and went to give it back, she probably didn’t01:07:24
understand, but still she01:07:26
greeted me with a smile every time, I still01:07:29
remember the face of this beautiful holy01:07:32
woman, wrinkles,01:07:34
kind bottomless eyes, with what01:07:38
gratitude I felt for her I remember01:07:42
for my fifth birthday she gave me a01:07:45
brown dress that she sewed herself and a01:07:48
jar of plum jam, the dress I01:07:53
wore up to the holes in my elbows, she warmed me with the01:07:56
love and kindness01:07:58
Olga put into every seam, my01:08:02
mother diluted the jam with water and it turned out to be a compote01:08:05
that we drank with the whole family01:08:08
after the death of our dear Olga’s mother01:08:11
allowed me to take the scissors,01:08:14
which during all the time of use have01:08:16
not deteriorated a bit, these precious01:08:20
scissors I keep all the years of my life as a01:08:24
memory of the wonderful strong01:08:28
and generous person Olga01:08:32
during the war, she was a hero,01:08:35
she gave love and care, sometimes01:08:39
denying herself anything -now I understand01:08:42
that she was in great need,01:08:45
despite these clothes that she sewed01:08:48
were given to those in need, only a small01:08:52
part was sold, I am very very01:08:55
grateful to her for everything that she did,01:08:59
Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin said that it is01:09:03
not only possible to be proud of your ancestors,01:09:05
but also should not be respected by him and there is01:09:09
shameful cowardice01:09:11
