Nuns in their habits!

While visiting Rome, the pilgrim enjoys "habit watching." Such a benevolent sign: a glowing sister in her habit beaming with joy! This action carries with it a commanded awe from everyone that I've ever seen. Apparently impervious to sweat, these sisters in their starchy collars and long veils look so gosh darn nice! Such an oblation and witness with Christ is always requited. In hindsight, it's embarassing that many nuns in the political ferment of the era in the fractious 1960s left so much in the cobwebbed recesses of nowhere. As a young Catholic gentleman, I want to be imbibed with Catholic culture (customs!). Let's consign the habit, which was always a blessed garment, back to our world. See these outward splendours in Rome!
