But I did not want to be a priest. I was the same as most girls who wished themselves in a convent: I wanted to be where I could think, and where not just anyone could look at me.
I wanted to choose constraint and be freed by it, after constraint was all that had ever been offered to me.
Part of what you have to figure out in this life is, Who would I be if I hadn’t been frightened? What hurt me, and what would I be if it hadn’t? Priestdaddy
(why ask now?)
