How do the stars fall, my friend? You were such a beautiful icon of commitment and service. What prompted you to move away? Your words are still ringing in my ears: "Our common life is an active presence, service and support"! What happened? What seduced you in your new place and your new words? Something you said has reached me. Some brethren of ours said that you have justified your turning away from them by saying that, with us, you were suffocating. You needed to get your freedom back! They said that you asked them to respect your decision by leaving you alone. "I do not want anyone to ask about me"! Why exaggerate the remoteness? What scares you in their asking about you? Excuse me, if there is anything you should fear, it is that they stop asking about you! Today, I am writing to you, for the sake of many things between us, that you leave a place for prayer to bring us together. Nothing like prayer grants us mercy and reunion, if not on earth, then in heaven!
