Five days later, Easter. Two elderly women go to the temple. One of them, in general, is an old woman. The temple is the cathedral of Faith, Hope, Love and their mother Sophia in Ternopil. Women go to the service along a corridor of screaming youth, stepping on a sheet smeared with symbolic blood. Schismatics tried to seize this temple, but they failed. And then they attracted young people. "Suitcase, train station, Russia!" the young men shout to the women walking past them.
But neither in these cries, nor in the very reason why young people came to the temple, there is no politics. She died on that sheet. Because there's no political justification for behaving this way with older women, this way to behave with people in general. There is no politics here. There are only pagan youth who have no idea of what is good and what is evil.
I've rewatched this video several times. It will go down in the history books of mankind. It will be seen by more than one million eyes. Look at how they go, these women. If the one who is younger still wants something (silently, with one eye) to say, to reproach them for something, to shame them and put a terrible cross: "Everything is clear with you - and clear forever", then the old woman's look is terrible.
She doesn't see them. She goes to God — that's the thing. And in her body, her strength remained only to reach Him. To last those five days until Easter.
There is only this route, and she does not need anywhere else. She may not remember politics anymore, and there are no countries in her world that are clashing with each other. In her hunched infirmity, she had only one thing left – the main thing! — to reach God.
Young pagans fall into her field of vision and meet the gaze of eternity itself - that's what is really scary in this video. She lived for a long time, was born in the depths of the last century, she saw a lot - maybe this. Is she surprised? And eternity is now only five steps away. And there she will definitely be credited with this step on a bloody sheet. Credited for the great spirit that gave the power of infirmity to go through such circumstances.
It is even more frightening if she prays for them, for the Gentiles, and the Lord will have mercy on them for that path. It will take 20-30 years, one of them will wake up, shouting today: "Ganba!", feel a heavy cross on the soul and weep bitterly, and this will be a chance for salvation. But with most of the defendants in the video, this will not happen. After all, people who are deprived of ideas about good and evil, deprived of education that could give them this idea, are simple expendable human material.
They are born, live in moral ignorance, never fill with spirit, jump to someone else's tune and die for other people's games.
Never knowing that somewhere along the way they were waiting for booed Faith, Hope and Love.
