MissScripture Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 Psh, i'm just a lowly family member. I don't even have any idea what half the place looks like! Like I know anything? People going on retreats see WAY more than I ever will!
dominicansoul Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 you should go on a vocations retreat, just to spend time with your sister and to discern religious life...
Little Flower Posted December 10, 2011 Author Posted December 10, 2011 [quote name='jruss' timestamp='1323219034' post='2345851'] Sounds an awful lot like the Nashville Dominicans to me. [/quote] ah. the only problem there is that I forgot to put in my description that it would be cloistered. if i didn't think i was supposed to be cloistered i would totes be a nashie!
MissScripture Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 Yeah, I think they might be a little confused when I ask if it's okay to bring my baby with.
dominicansoul Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 Is what you are saying, is, that your dream community will be one that allows women with babies?
MissScripture Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 My dream community will be the one created when I have a dozen kids with my hubby. Or perhaps the one that is willing to take all my kids and educate them!
Little Flower Posted December 10, 2011 Author Posted December 10, 2011 to quote EWIE, SHEESH! I WASN'T SERIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! do you seriously think I'm gonna rule out communities because they won't play hockey? im not sure any cloistered community would... Most of my "dream community" is just what I think would be fun, combined with what I feel God is calling me to. I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to be a cloistered nun. Any community that doesn't wear a habit raises some serious red flags for me, just because of what usually goes along with it. Also I don't see a reason [i]not[/i] to wear a habit, especially for a cloistered nun. And what I said about the charism of study, I truly feel drawn to that. It's not just a "that sounds razzle dazzle, lets do it!" And would you say that girls should never be allowed to dream about the house they want to live in once they're married? I have no expectations of being able to actually enter a place like my "dream community". Having imagined a beautiful expansive mansion-like house doesn't ruin the small cramped house they wind up living in. They are happy there even though its not a castle. I know if I'm doing God's will I'll be happy wherever I enter, whether or not the monastery looks really razzle dazzle and nice and whether or not I have the fullest possible veil and habit.
dominicansoul Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 my dream community would be one without smart alecks and know-it-alls... ...but then even I wouldn't be in it!
Nunsense Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 My 'dream' community would let me continue posting on phatmass!
