We share the mic with Chelley Gardner-Smith. Thank you Chelly!

Saint Simeon Stylites (circa 390–459 AD), the famous Syrian Christian ascetic who lived for 37 years atop a pillar.

He pioneered a unique form of asceticism known as the stylites (from the Greek word stylos, meaning "pillar"). To escape the massive crowds of pilgrims and followers seeking his counsel, he retreated to a small platform on top of a giant column in the Syrian desert, living there until his death.
