Ive been thinking about monks, and I have come to the conclusion (not really) that I don’t know why they have that bald spot on top of their heads… besides that, I think I can understand why they live their lifestyle. Actually, it sounds rather appealing in a lot of ways (I wonder if I am thinking about monks, cuz I am mostly stuck in a compound with some other Christians, and there isn’t all that much to do besides pray, think, read, and hang out with God.). I have the feeling though, that Monks don’t spend enough time with children (I think God uses playing and spending time with children not only to fill us with joy, but also to teach us about Himself and ourselves.)

I think that life shouldn’t be lived in seclusion, but neither should we deny its value or reject it completely.

As for me, my best choice would be seclusion, interrupted all the time by people.
