All
people have a cross to carry. There is no man in this world without a
cross. Those who met Christ from the time of their childhood have for
their Cross, the Cross of our Christ. Those who met Jesus and have
repented on behalf of their previous life, have a cross, the cross of
the good and penitent thief. And those who have met Jesus and have not
received Him, have in their life the cross of the unrepentant thief. So
we all have our cross. Everyone carries his cross and ascends his own
Golgotha (the hill outside Jerusalem on which Jesus was crucified), the
Golgotha of his personal life.
