maximillion Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Charades, skits, singing ( esp songs composed by the sisters), little one or two act plays, music making, dressing up and performing....we did all of these and more in a quite austere community. We had Silence but it was written in our constitution that 'appropriate and considerate laughter' was not a transgression of our Silence. We laughed and giggled picking fruit, canning peaches, hoeing vegetables. And yes, shaking shoulders on the way to LOTH were not at all unusual. I think I can very safely say I had as much fun in the convent as ever I have out of it, possible more! The day a bat got into refectory, and the day a Goliath beetle invaded the choir at LOTH both live on in my memory. Those who enter Religious life don't lose their humanity on the way!
