Joining the convent

A while ago, directly after the mess I had made trying to combine 2 jobs, being so stressed out I turned ill, I made a weird decision. I decided to take a break soon, to stay at a convent for a few days.

I have always been curious about life in a convent. It seems mysterious, devoting your life to the divine in a world that is so...worldly. And it seems peaceful also. Trying to stay away from all the fuzz, living a simple life of constant rythm.

So I'm going there tomorrow. But, as always when I got a crazy idea in my head and I'm about to embark on it, I getting nervous. What was I thinking? What will happen? Will I get extremely lonely and bored? Will I get lots of inspiration? Will I meet new people? Have interesting conversations? I don't know, it's exciting and scary at the same time. I guess this is how you feel when you move out of your comfort zone. Let's hope it will be beautiful.

With love,
Angela
