13549 - The Saints too are initially humans

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou

The Saints too are initially humans
so why not to stare at them
in a different way
when you know that some
of these humans
will be the next Saints
because they are not trying
just to learn a lot
since it will always be few
whereas if you too know
of how to learn how to learn
you will see the world differently
so in this way
you won’t look
somewhere outside
for something that exists
among us
and is valuable
even if you don’t see it
for now
because you are staring
at miracles only
while holiness
is always invisible
for those who don’t know
how they should stare at
something that already exists
even before thinking of it
because this protects them
before the need
to prevent
barbarity.
