A nun boarded my train this morning. There was a momentary pause in activity as everyone stopped to stare at her in her pale blue garments. Not something you see everyday, that's for sure. I was overcome by a feeling of deep respect and appreciation. I do not refer to religious revelry by any means, but the self-knowing that her vocation represented. This woman had a calling and made a decision. This calling being one of commitment, love and dedication to god (based on who god is for her - insert your god here), in so doing she took on mankind. That's huge!
So I ask, what's your mission? What will you commit to? Start small if you like. But once you decide you will be changed forever and your calling will shine through no pale blue habit necessary.
