@KronosAsvestos The Goths didn’t affect Roman day to day life that much and things only stopped improving when the Gothic wars happen. That was the death blow to Rome since Roman life after that would be in decline since then.
@KronosAsvestos Rome didn’t fall until the Gothic wars. Things were getting better since Rome wasn’t getting sacked anymore and frankly was in a terrible place economically for a while before the Goths took over.
Let us not waste our time and energies chasing after appearances. Rather, let us learn from John the Baptist to remain vigilant, to love simplicity, to be sincere in our words, to live soberly, and to cultivate a depth of mind and heart. #GospelOfToday (Jn 1:29-34)
Our joy and greatness are not founded on passing illusions of success or fame, but on knowing ourselves to be loved and wanted by our heavenly Father. #GospelOfToday (Jn 1:29-34)
God does not look upon the world from afar, unconcerned with our lives, our troubles or our expectations! He comes among us with the wisdom of His Word made flesh, drawing us into His wondrous plan of love for all humanity.
Good Morning and happy Monday you lovely people! From my favourite cafe, Dinos. I’m enjoying a nice steak and ale pie for breakfast this morning. It’s a new week, new day, new start. Wishing you all a wonderful week. Keep on moving forward, and always believe in yourself. The harder you work, the luckier you get. So have a blinder you amazing people. I know it’s tough out there right now. But tough times don’t last, tough people do. Let’s smash the week. Bosh❤️
O Lord, “your works praise you, that we may love you; may we love you, that your works may praise you” (St. Augustine). May we share this harmony with the world. #SeasonOfCreation
