More from the front
I started to realize the high strung-ness of the people here (at the monastery)and the nature and stuff/substance of their constant ongoing relationships which fit that.
I’m realizing that for myself to a degree too and also for both them and me what the priority relationships are for us and that we have priority relationships.
Today the Eldress tried to get between me and my relationship with Blue. And I jokingly gave her warning (but I meant it). She also tried to get between me and my brother in another conversation and I was having non (nun) of it.
I realize there are priority relationships for survival here for them and everywhere for all of us.
I have been practicing hard at my ordination prayers.. I am just keeping on keeping on. Will do my best and that’s it from me. I hope you are well.
Thank you for everything

Big hug sweetie
She mustn't 'get' how much you adore Blue to try and get in between that
Dangerous territory!!
It's good that you spoke up for you and Bluey!!
Hopefully the rest of the day will be good...xo
Thanks Janet! xx
On another side of things:
I’m realizing that if I don’t start applying myself more to the work here. It’s going to be taken away from me. Some people here are quick to write me off it seems but it’s up to me to nevermind them and work out what is my role and ignore the insecurity
I need a place in the world and the world has brought me this monastic life.
Yikes, I’ve been in that position with people before and it’s not fun. I’m glad you stuck up for blue and what’s important to you.
The hanks Sunshine!!
