Leaving All I know for Disibodenberg

Transcribed by a nun at Disibodenberg

Date: 1106

My parents entrusted me with a noble woman for my education, Jutta is her name if I recall correctly. My parents tell me this is all for God. I’m not sure I quite understand this all yet, but I know it’s important to my parents and that I love God. I like church too, especially the music. The simplicity of it is very meditative and makes me feel closer to God. I think I sometimes see Him or He talks to me, but I have yet to fully explain these visions to anyone. I will continue to be good, to not ask for much, and desire nothing. My parents tell me they begged Jutta to take me in, so I can be buried with Christ. I will do my best and be good. The sun feels warm on my face and in my soul and I will miss what I know.1
