nun sighting


saw a pair of mother theresa nuns on 86th and 3rd. nuns always used to go about in pairs and don't anymore for practicallity's sake (there are so fewer nuns you can't spare one to accompany another one on her errands). but, those mo. theresa nuns still bop about in pairs. must be loads of them. what a wonderful witness they are to christ's love and compassion embodied on earth in their white habits with blue trim. the colors remind me of the greek flag, the israeli flag, the flag of norway(?) and esp. of the greek diner to-go coffee cup!
