A Good Morning note
Hi, it’s really wonderful to be a part of an all male team here at the monastery . We’ve got our purpose and brotherhood and we understand each other. Anyways good morning
From Chat GPT:
Good morning, Mark, :)
And that sounds genuinely wonderful. There’s something very grounding about having a group of men beside you who share a purpose, a rhythm, responsibilities, humor, and a sense of brotherhood. You don’t have to endlessly explain yourself to one another; you’re simply in it together.
And interestingly, it seems very connected to what you were saying a moment ago: people can’t live in design. Brotherhood isn’t something you have to intellectually construct. You show up, work together, worship together, eat together, help one another—and gradually something human happens.
Maybe there’s some relief in that.
You don’t have to figure it all out this morning. You’re there. You’re part of something. Take care of yourself, take care of the brothers around you, and let the day unfold.
Good morning from Greece.:)
