i<3LSOP Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 When you decide to wear your hair down (because it's blonde and curly with ringlets thrown in) and because you realize you have (if it's the Lord's will) nine years left of wearing it down and not in a veil....

[/quote] I never thought I'd see the day when someone talked about becoming a nun for beauty reasons EDIT: Though you know it's true - nuns are all beautiful. It isn't the habit. When a nun is faithful to what she is, it makes her 'light up' somehow. I've seen it a lot of times. So yeah, become a nun for Christ's sake and get beauty as a bonus side-effect.

EmilyAnn Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 When you're always emailing the novice mistress with the questions you forgot when you saw her. I've been doing this recently. Somehow when I was meeting with her I couldn't remember a thing, the second I got home I had a load of questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
