When a relative visited from Italy, a devout Catholic, she wanted to go to that Carmelite Cloister. I’m not sure why she wanted to go there because we were sight seeing. But even being here in the Bay Area, I was not aware of the place you mention in Santa Clara. But I am not a Catholic either. My Catholic friends never mentioned it. You’ve asked about cloistered living in your article. In a way, Covid did that for all of us. We found ways to connect, but I believe Covid and Social Media have had a profound effect on our national culture to the point it has separated us into tribes. We have to make a great effort to unite again and tame the elixir of social media. We are all addicted to our phones and devices.
