On the 2nd of November, I caught a flight from Vienna to Dublin. I spent the evening of 2 November in Dublin. The next morning I took the train west to Limerick, where I caught a taxi to Glenstal Abbey. I stayed at Glenstal Abbey for a couple of days. It was there that I first experienced monks chanting the Divine Office live. I had not imagined the Beatitudes being chanted before I heard the Glenstal monks chanting them, which I greatly enjoyed. I find great comfort in the chanting of the Divine Office. I appreciate the frequent reminder in the Divine Office of the eternal nature of God.
