Tomorrow I am catching an early train to Staffordshire and making a trip to St Mary’s Abbey. I have been talking over email to their novice mistress about the possibility of me joining them in a vocation. I have been invited now to visit and look around. If they find me to their liking and see me as sincere then they will allow me to come back and ( Read more... )

I am not insane. I am thinking very clearly now.

God does not want me to continue to do the things that I have been doing.

God is a figment of your fevered imagination and you're going to go live with old women who smell like beets for him.

My personal belief is that God has much greater things to worry about than one's earthly lifestyle. I believe it is the spiritual arena that is of the only true importance. That is something you may talk to me about at any time. I do not think an Aspirancy is necessary. God's house is everywhere and eternal. You are one of the most worshipful people I know. I do not think you need this.

Even so, it is not for me to say what your path ought to be.

If this is truly what you want, Lina, then I'll support you in it. You're right when you say that I might not think it's a good idea. I don't, necessarily. But I'm willing to be convinced, if it really is right for you. We can talk about it sometime soon if you like. You're one of my best friends. I'd like to talk to you about it. I promise I won't just try to talk you out of it. I love you.

Yes, I would like to talk to all of you about it when I come back home next week. I want to share how I feel.

After you come back sounds good. That way, you can tell us all about what you find out there.

Oh wow. Wow. I don't know what to think. I don't want you to go but I want you to be happy. Argh, conflicted!

But I do want you to be happy. That's more important than me not wanting you to go. But I guess we wait till Wednesday to find out what's going to happen...

Yes. On Wednesday I will tell you everything.

My darling Catalina, I have to speak honestly to you. I don't believe for one moment that this is what you truly want, and I know it won't make you happy. Ma cherie, I can try to make you happy but I know that I am not God but religion is not going to make you happiest for you.

My love for God has always been what make me happiest. I do not believe that being a model and doing the things that I am doing is what he wants for me. I feel hypocritical to do so.

Oh, I wish to speak to you in person! Why are we so far apart!

But being in a convent is not what he would want either, beautiful. Don't you go see that lady until I come to see you, I am cancelling all my work next week so I can go to London.

I have already gone to see her but we can talk before I go back again.

How do you know what it is He wants, Dom?
