Ndifuna ukubhala iinkcukacha ngakumbi malunga neemvakalelo kunye neempawu ezivela kuhambo lokuhamba ngebhanti yentombi enyusiweyo abangama-Norto kwii-ritto lagos. I-pilgrimms yam eGrisi inamandla kakhulu, kwaye wonke umntu ufuna ukwabelana nabafundi. Ukuhamba eGrisi kwi-Helkidiki kum yam yaza yaba yindaba ethandekayo ukuba inqunu ibhanti yebhanti kaThixo. IZiko lePilgrim "Lirun" liyintsikelelo evela kumagqabi amajelo, apho ibhanti igcinwa khona, omnye umntu wakhe unyamezele uPillgrim. Uhambo lokuya kuye lwenziwa ecaleni kwenkqubo yohambo, endibathathe inxaxheba kuyo.
Ezi mvakalelo ziya kuhlala zisentliziyweni yam. Ukuhamba kwihotele kwenziwa kusasa, indlela eya kwibhanti inde, ayifikeleli kumda waseTurkey. Indlela yenkqubo yohambo ikwanxulunyaniswa neendawo ezindwendwelayo apho okungenani kangangexesha elithile umpostile uPawulos wema. Yayingumnqahli wokuqala kwaye wanxulunyaniswa nompostile, samiswa kwimonkinge yeLiqo yeLili eNgcwele, lo mbhaptizi wokuqala wamkela uProfeti. Kukho indawo entle kakhulu kwaye kukho indawo apho yabhaptizwayo. Kwanasetempileni ngokwayo kukho ifonti enkulu, apho namhlanje kukho iintsana kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo i icon yeSt. Lydia nompostile uPawulos. Emva koko saya kuPiliam, kwathi kwalowo ke umpostile emhadini.
Kwaye emva koko saphuma ePorto Lagos, indawo apho kwaye ibhanti kunye nomfanekiso ongummangaliso womama kaThixo kanina kaThixo. Ngexesha lokuhamba, sivile ibali likaGida Umcimbi wezakwalizwi malunga nobuKristu baseGrisi, malunga nobomi babangcwele kwaye kunjalo malunga neendawo esiziza ngazo. Ngeli xesha ke, ngeyure emva koko sakho. Ukuhamba ngebhasi ekhululekile kwenzeka ngokukhawuleza nangokulula. UMongami ngokwawo usechibini yindawo emangalisayo. Sihambe kuye. Emva koko kweza etempileni kaSt. Nicholas, i-icon kunye nentshukumo yomnqamlezo onika ubomi bukaYehova igcinwe apho. Kwaye emva kwebhulorho enye, icawe encinci intsha ngokupheleleyo, kodwa kuluhlu lwe icon yommangaliso ye-Allzariya. Le icon izukiswa yimimangaliso emininzi, ukuphilisa kwizifo, njl njl. Ixhonywe ngemiqondiso emininzi ethi abantu bazise zombini izicelo okanye ukubulela.
Emva kokuba sonke siqokelelwe kwitempile yeSt. I-nicholas kwaye sayiphatha ibhanti kubuhle obumangalisayo bomkhombe. Kwakumela ke imvumi yendlu yedolophu, saza sahamba, saluva ubabalo olungadluli ngalo. Iinyembezi zombulelo kunye nolonwabo kunye nokungcangcazela zaphazamisa intliziyo yam. Kufutshane yayisezincancisa ze-maxim grek. Nathi simnika uYise, wabangcwalisa ngebhanti. Saza ke sema, sathandaza, esazi ukuba, ukuba ngubani na njengomphefumlo. Kwavakalelwa luthando lukanina lukaThixo kwaye kwabonakala ngathi luphela. Ukwazi kunye novuyo kunye nentlungu yomntu wonke.
Emva kokuba sisikelele ibhanti. Umntu ngamnye unike indlela yokuphila inikezelwe kwibhanti kunye neencwadi ezincinci ezincinci kunye nemifanekiso. Wayenomthandazo. Kwaye ke besilinde iMonki eArchondarik, igumbi elinje lokuthatha i-pilgrims, lalinda ngokuphatha iicokies namanzi. Ubunzulu obunjalo, le ngcinga ibikwigama ngalinye.
Sahlala saqonda ukuba singabuya sibuyele ngaphambili. Into eguqukile ngokucacileyo entliziyweni. Ke kwincoko yadlula ekugqibeleni kwayo sahamba kancinci emdeni kwaye sabuyela ebhasini. Indlela yokubuyela umva yayiyinto yokumisa isidlo sasemini kwaye ibukele iifilimu malunga nabaNgcwele. Ezo meko zibonakalise iintliziyo zethu. Indlela yahamba ngokukhawuleza kwaye ngokuhlwa sazifumana ehotele. Ukudinwa kwakungavakali, nangona sasihamba imini yonke.
IGrisi inayo yonke into, le iyinyani, kodwa kule nto ilungele uthando lwamaGrike ngoThixo nangethemba lakhe kuyo yonke into, elingekwenzeka ukuba liyeke ukungazi kweli lizwe. Ndinqwenela ngentliziyo yam yonke uhambo olusindileyo.
