There's Master Ignatius, whistling in the garden.
Master Ignatius, let me tell you what I've learned.
So you see, I am learning to be obedient.
I guess I just wanted to thank you.
Father, you have shown me that obedience is better than greatness.
Greatness is a worthless pursuit.
When you tried to become a great knight, your leg was shattered.
When you tried to become a great saint, you were deceived by the devil.
When you tried to become a great martyr, the Lord God sent you straight home.
When you abandoned your desire for greatness, when you became obedient to God, that is when you actually became great and holy, even dressed in beggar's rags.
And when I tried to become great, I lied, I protested, I was disobedient.
I failed, and I was dismissed.
