Silence

Today, mainly due to an even worse lack of inspiration than usual, I would like to invite you to share a moment of silence and reflection with me…

Until the 1970´s the nuns of this convent lived completely isolated from the outerworld – they didn´t talk and show themselves to outsiders. Even between them, only one hour of conversation was allowed. Actually, some of the older nuns keep living according to this rules as they are not used to any contact with the outside world.
