Sir Thomas More, The Man for All Seasons, upon whom the movie is based, spent several years during his twenties in a Carthusian Charterhouse (London "monastery"). The "great silence" he found there attracted him greatly. Yet, he felt called to a life of a family man and lawyer. Consistent with his experience of God, he opted to "remain 'silent'" when trialed for refusing to accept Henry VIII as supreme head of the Church in England. A well-formed conscience and silence draws us into God.

how so? I'm curious as to what you mean

Me too, but this doesn't mean you can't live your normal days with the same spirit of a monastic vocation.

I would have liked to have joined a monastery. What a pity I never did.

Thank you so much! Since I am not very familiar with Italian, I found that TV show hard to understand when I watched it once. Now the added subtitles help a lot. So thank you very much! May God be with you and help you to spread your word: We certainly need to rediscover contemplation in our Christian life.
