Cloistered by Catherine Coldstream
One of the biggest stressors in life is when we lose a loved one to death. It is highly likely your life and thoughts will change in some way. For Catherine Coldstream it is her father's death. The author chose to become a nun. Much Later, she leaves the cloister. Immediately after opening the book, there is a feeling that is not earthly. It is like opening a door to a quiet place of solitude. I suppose it is a feeling of transcendence. In the beginning, you can feel Catherine's excitement to become a nun. Catherine Coldstream carried her Viola along with her to the monastery. Quickly, there is the first discovery. It is not easy to become a nun: write a letter, step off a bus and into a monastery and sing. It takes years to learn a new way of life. It takes great desire and patience. First of all, you need a prayer stool.
