That’s assuming both that your spouse is gone and that your children haven’t turned out lemons and left you bringing up your grandchildren.

I see his point, really. I just don’t find it applicable, except in the most vaguely-spiritual way, to my life. But there’s nothing wrong with that. His readership includes all kinds of people.

True, oh to be that free! I am sure it would be awesome to be able to focus on nothing but Jesus! But that’s why there are retreats. My friends (I’ve moved twice since then) used to go to a week long silent retreat in Indiana. They said it was awesome. For a group of women not to talk! Well I guess in the evening after evening prayers they could talk if they wanted to. Imagine no one following you around making demands?
