AccountDeleted Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 [quote name='brandelynmarie' timestamp='1317532101' post='2313742'] Ah! Since you put it like that... [/quote] I've found that I have to look at everything from a different perspective these days - that's the only way it all makes sense to me. God is all love and all goodness and wants only what is best for our soul. So as long as we are trying to please Him, He uses our offerings for our good, and will lead on us the best path to holiness, no matter how difficult or contrary to our own nature that may seem. St Bruno is a great example of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sistersintigo Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 How about another video?? This is a nun-free video, as it is limited to La Valsainte, the last remaining Carthusian monastery in Switzerland (which, early in the Carthusian Order's nine-hundred-year history, hosted many foundations, due to its geographic closeness to the Massif Chartreuse in the French Alps). La Valsainte is, and always has been, a foundation for men/monks and brothers. Also it's an historical archive affair, which means black and white.

It's amazing how much remains the same, having seen "Into Great Silence". Edited October 9, 2011 by brandelynmarie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
