Well, Mother Frangelico is taking pot-shots at me, so I figured instead of responding further, perhaps I should tell more of my story.
(And I really hope more discerners join our community quickly so that she will have someone else to pick on!)
Yes, I fled the chapel that day, but I came back, more and more often. And secretly, I was looking up information on religious communities. You should see all the ones I have saved to my "favorites"!
I didn't tell anyone, though, and some mornings I would wake up and think, "No way am I gonig to spend my life getting up this early!" And so I didn't want to be a Sister anymore. And I was relieved. Because then, likely I wasn't called to it.
And then, one evening at the church, a lady I know asked me, right out of nowhere, "Do you think you might have a vocation?"
Hu..h?
I told her, "Um...no. I don't." And I was pretty final about it. And she didn't say any more.
But that night I went home and looked at my favorites list and wondered about it some more. But it didn't appeal to me so I just checked my email and went to sleep.
Does that sound like running away...MOTHER?

Now, that's just rude. Why are you being rude to your mother? I'm beginning to see your problem. You clearly have a problem with obedience and authority.
We'll need to work on that with you. That might help.
