My God, my God, who remembered me? Everything that's weak and sick interests me. For a year and a half a homeless man slept with me, and in the ninety-eightth day there was an Afghan woman who fled from war. The cops also investigated me for her. If I make coffee or bake cake, I'll bring them. (about the homeless who are nearby)

Somewhere in the railway apartment near the station is Anička. We know that in addition to self – sacrificing and selfless helping people in need, he cares for abandoned graves, cleans crosses and cleans churches. The correct address is finally found thanks to the navigation of the neighbors and the name tag on the bell.
We’ll address an anička in the entrance. Touched with a wide smile invites us to the apartment. While in the kitchen looking for something to host us, we admire photographs of male family members in uniforms. The oldest ones are still from the time of the monarchy. He offers us fresh strawberries, gives us a drink and puts his whole life on his palm.
Don’t be mad I hugged you right away. I’m like that, and I’m like a beggar’s dog.
Anička is retired, but she could be envious of energy by young people. His arms are open. It helps homeless people, even one of them stayed with her for a while. He tends abandoned graves, cleans crosses, cleans churches, and from a small pension contributes to missionary activity. Above all, he prays a lot and prays for all.
We’ll say good-bye, but she’ll catch up with us behind the gate, and she’ll offer us candy to apologize for letting us leave empty-handed. I didn’t.
