The early morning light enters quietly through the windows and mixes with the smoke from incense. In the empty church, it is so quiet that one can almost hear the silence.
Утринната светлина влиза тихо през прозорците и се смесва с дима от тамяна. В празната църква е толкова спокойно, че човек почти чува тишината.

The morning incense really lingers just like that at the iconostasis. At mass at ten I always feel it there first.

Yes, the incense lingers right there at the iconostasis. In our Chisinau church, the priest burns more on the feast of Sfântul Dumitru, because we have an old icon brought from mănăstirea Căpriana.

It is very difficult for me to fast while working, especially when I have meetings with clients and I have to go to a cafe. I often take bread and fruit from home, but yesterday I cooked beans again and heated them in the office. What do you do at work so that the fast is not broken?
მუშაობისას მარხვა ძალიან მიჭირს, განსაკუთრებით როცა კლიენტებთან შეხვედრებია და კაფეში უნდა წავიდე. სახლიდან ხშირად პური და ხილი ვიღებ, მაგრამ გუშინ ისევ ლობიო დავხარშე და ოფისში გავათბე. ვინ რას აკეთებთ სამსახურში, რომ მარხვა არ დაირღვეს?
