God Speed IT. You have been the voice of reason on the Forum, and have always put in a soothing word when at times things looked as tho' they could have been getting out of hand .

May God hold you in the palm of His hand. Haere Ra.

Laughing, I had a funny suspicion that they were your babies!!!! Alas i cannot stay my friend as much as I love you all... The love and obedience that is calling me, will bring more blessings for souls on VS and phatmass than the presence of a nut like me!

What will happen to Phatmass if everyone enters the convent?

Well there are a few of us left who will do our best to keep the homefires burning. I am too old and too sick to enter. Other posters are currently in religious life, and have no plans to leave. Others previously were in active religious life, and later got married and are either expecting or have children--They have just as strong a vocation and that vocation is marriage. Others think they may be called to be lay members of an Order, rather than full-time religious. Others of us are married, but have family or close friends in religious life. Personally, I believe there will be a core that will keep Vocation Station not just alive, but thriving.

The the most important thing is that Vocation Station continues to attract new people--men and women--who come here for all kinds of reasons. Some may just be interested in learning what the religious life is about. Others may be seriously discerning religious life. Some may be like me, who, even though I am not called to religious life, have for many years been interested in reading about the religious life, and want to support those who called. We do our best to make new people feel welcome--Just get in there and start posting. If it feels sometimes like it is such a close, long-term group that no one new is welcome, I, at least, apologize for anything I might have done to foster that. The exact opposite is true. Some members have been posting for several years--but, for example, I have been posting for only seven months or so. But, we do become close--and we welcome you to share and join that closeness..

Many of our most active members entered religious life this past summer and fall, so this is the perfect time for those who have posted less in the past to post more often in Vocation Station.

I have very mixed feelings. Selfishly, I would love you to stay--you give so much to us on Phatmass,and you have given so much to me pesonally. But, I also know that you miss your life in Carmel, and that your Community needs you as much or more than we do.

In a sense, you are the perfect example of both the joys and sadness of Phatmass. We enjoy everyone who posts, and are especially happy when our members leaves (or, in your case, returns) to full-time religious life. And, once in awhile, someone special like you comes along that we would never have had a chance to meet otherwise.

But, along with our happiness comes a sadness, and a reminder that God's needs and wants for an individual are more important than our own needs. So, while I will miss you terribly, I also pray my very imperfect prayers every day that your health will be good enough for you to return at the time you have planned. We were very lucky that God "loaned" you to us for a short while. But, while we learned so much, and had so much fun in your company, the reason that you could be with us, that you rarely talked about, and never complained about, was serious pain and bad health. The best way we can show how much we love you is to pray that your health continues to improve so that you can leave us--ironic, but that is what real love is--wanting the best for another person, even if it means personal pain for us.

And, God finds ways to bring other wonderful people into our lives--he doesn't desert us.

And then there's the rest of us, dying of love and jealous of our brothers and sisters who are leaving...

VS will live on-- it's a great resource for those discerning. People come and go. Ah the circle of life.

Oh Iggy... Your beautiful heart leaves me speechless. Truly you have been a gift to me and a joy to my heart. Continue to be that gift for others too who also seek the face of God. It is often that widows mite that little gift of love cost not counted that changes the tide of another's life... you are that gift my friend and i will always love you and hold you gently in prayer.

[HisChild]

Indwelling Trinity,

We keep missing connecting... I pray we're able to chat before you leave, but should that not be the case, know that you're in my prayers always. Your friendship means a great deal to me and I will keep you in my heart without end.

God bless you,
