I get sleepy at around 8PM so maybe I should just go with it and be a healthy sleeping monastic. I am tempted to bid on that original Monks Pond I see for sale on EBay right now. Maybe if I hold the original 1st journal he produced I'll get a better schedule. Milk no good for me -- though maybe if it's not pasteurized... And who needs anuthing besides coffee and bread at 6:15AM? Yikes I had forgotten that Cistercians or any monks rose at 2AM — which has lately been my bedtime.

I'm a great admirer of Thomas Merton. Merton was first and foremost deeply human and very open minded. He was way ahead of his time and is still ahead of many today. I have been deeply influenced by his work and it has drawn me to Trappists in general. :-) Don Thanks for your writing and your work. I’m a great admirer of Thomas Merton.
