The Metropolitan Anthony Packanich: what is the biggest act of courage?

A person gets through various situations in life, commits some actions, makes some decisions. Some decision requires more efforts and time, the other requires less.

Having achieved intended purposes people pique themselves on the goal commitment, on their bravery, and think that achieving goals is almost the main victory and benefit in life.

But not every action requiring efforts is a real victory and personification of bravery. At the same time we very often don’t pay attention and place importance on things which are definitely called courage.

The perfect courage means capability to love other person in spite of the fact that he can drop out of our life, to love in spite of brevity of life, in spite of logic and age, time and distance.

To love someone recognising the whole fluctuation and temporality of the earthly dimension. To love someone understanding that you can lose him in any moment. To love one with no borders, unselfishly… This feeling requires big courage and strong soul.

There’s no higher capability in the world beside the capability to love, and nothing can be stronger.

Cowards run from the true love, they’re afraid to love. They’re in fear of possible loss, disappointment, betrayals, sufferings and challenges. But the love always gets through all challenges, it tempers there like steel. It tempers to live forever.

Therefore the majority of people battle against the wind, they have buried their head in work, vanity, they spend their time on entertainment, running from true and deep feeling in such way. We all are running from the love throughout life.

We don’t show love towards our closest people: parents, children, cohabitant, friends. We’re afraid of being ridiculed or strange, we’re afraid of reproach and wounds, we’re afraid of anxiety and worries. That’s why nowadays many people prefer living without family, kids — it’s much easier and more comfortable.

We also don’t love further ones, who accidentally cross our path, but they’re not just random persons . A person happens to live like this loving nobody and being blind to it.
