To be docile to the Holy Ghost, we must first hear His voice.To do so, recollection, detachment from the world and from self are necessary, as are the custody of the heart, the mortification of self-will, and personal judgment.
If silence does not reign in our soul, if the voice of excessively human affections troubles it, we cannot of a certainty hear the inspirations of the interior Master.

So am I... One of the impressive things about G-L is that he doesn't seem to regard the spiritual goals to which he directs everyone as being in any sense out of the ordinary. He must have been remarkably holy.
I'm more scuppered than you are.
