Quote from the Desert Fathers

This quote may be pertinent for those of us with dependent personality disorders:

Blessed Archbishop Theophilus, accompanied by a magistrate, came one day to Abba (Father) Arsenius. He questioned the old man, to hear a word from him. After a short silence the old man answered him, 'Will you put into practice what I say to you?' They promised him this. 'If you hear Arsenius is anywhere, do not go there.'

God bless you
