Catacombs, where the blood run cold
The kingdom of the dead near Paris (France)
Where not only spread all kinds of catacombs, caves, tunnels and all sorts of shelters, where people were trying to safeguard the most sacred for them and valuable. If we consider the whole psychology of different times and diverse catacombs, it will be composed by one common touching devotion and dedication page.
Somewhere there were also predatory caves, but these dens will be much less than the shelter in order to preserve the benefits for the sake of bringing in the best land, peace began. Those who visited the catacombs and all kinds of tunnels, they could be sure that even the wall characters left in the memory of touching characters.
Among the peculiar human trials, for some reason, certainly needed or catacombs, or imprisonment, or harassment. The manifestation of the good must necessarily cause the opposite fury. When you are in Rome, be sure to go to the catacombs. Simply click on the various catacombs are not stingy to ask to show you the length of the side passages, where, how to say, is dangerous to walk. Detailed inspection wall signs, all the inscriptions. Feel on your body penetrating dampness. Take a look at the darkness, the coming of the mysterious endless passages. Remember how ran almost naked, badly covered, barefoot in the wet, these stone bed, among the burial tombs.

Each sign of devotion and dedication is pouring into the hearts of a new courage. All ages were proyavlyaemo selflessness. As the highest spiritual test is certainly need these persecutions, for which you can write the story of the heroic in all languages.
Indeed, in the caves and dungeons treasures sought out. These values must be understood in all senses. It is also necessary to remind about these values, for both the catacombs existed and exist. In vain did someone think that any catacombs have moved to legends. Far from there. Honorary catacombs, honorable imprisonment, honorable pursuit there in full and in a variety of them are just excel.
It would be unforgivable to talk about abstraction that honorable pursuit ended. They still exist in the forefront of the struggle for the benefit of a number. And they must be perceptible with all firmness and determination as the stigmata of grace. Anyone who has not been prosecuted for benefit, he is not his. It would be unnatural to assume that the true achievements come without a fight.
An activist recently we read this description: "liked or disliked it you agree or disagree with him, but you can never be indifferent to it. Beside him it was always something that could not be neglected - a certain heroism, selfless courage, the joy of battle, fire beliefs. There was no halftone had no sweetness was not shy pliability. Everything in it was as bright as day, indisputably, as the multiplication table, clearly, as the thunder of Sinai ».

To shorten the way it will be and the catacombs and spend the night in a cave, maybe nedospit and forget about food - it is not for himself, he goes. Service to humanity is not some samomnitelnaya phraseology. On the contrary, it is a high demand and a difficult one has to put in front of him, as the purpose of the earth.
In the work, help, encouragement, in education, in all the quest achievements before the person is the same ministry. In it, he just gives his duty. Again, it does not force gives, but it is quite natural, because otherwise it can not be. Now, when I tell you about the special thrift, I mean that there may maliciously push your lamp.
