If we are suffering or going through a hardship, we should stop blaming and saying someone is suffocating us. We ourselves are doing it.

"You must understand. The leading Bolsheviks who took over Russia were not Russians. They hated Russians. They hated Christians. Driven by ethnic hatred they tortured and slaughtered millions of Russians without a shred of human remorse. The October Revolution was not what you call in America the "Russian Revolution." It was an invasion and conquest over the Russian people. More of my countrymen suffered horrific crimes at their bloodstained hands than any people or nation ever suffered in the entirety of human history. It cannot be [over]stated. Bolshevism was the greatest human slaughter of all time. The fact that most of the world is ignorant of this reality is proof that the global media itself is in the hands of the perpetrators."

Sabemos que nos mienten. Saben que nos mienten. Saben que sabemos que nos mienten. Sabemos que saben que sabemos que nos mienten. Y aún así, siguen mintiendo. Alexander Solzhenitsyn

If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?

Alexander Solzhenitsyn, novelist, Nobel laureate (1918-2008)

Una misma persona, a sus distintas edades, en distintas situaciones de la vida, es alguien totalmente diferente. Unas veces está cerca del diablo y otras del santo. Pero siempre se llama igual y siempre se trata del mismo hombre.

Still Maturing

Sometimes people think that their Christianity matures to a point where they no long have to face difficulties. Actually, the difficulties are bringing a greater maturity and fruitfulness in that Christian’s life that could be realized in no other way.

So where do we go from here?

"We don't even fear universal nuclear death, and we do not fear a third world war. We just fear acts of civil courage."

“But the fight for our planet, physical and spiritual, a fight of cosmic proportions, is not a vague matter of the future; it has already started. The forces of Evil have begun their decisive offensive. You can feel their pressure, yet your screens and publications are full of prescribed smiles and raised glasses. What is the joy about?”

— Alexander Solzhenitsyn, Commencement Address, Harvard University, June 8, 1978.
