The other day, when i wasn't feeling great, i was in a tram and one nun actually sit next to me. I was typing sms and i had noticed she was in her thoughts too,she kind of looked like she had a headache or was in deep praying, not sure. She was all in white, with an exception of black jacket. Not sure to which order she belonged, all in white but i felt even nuns don't always have a great day.
For me, when i see them,mostly in their black attire, i feel good about them as a good sign for that day. Maybe it is just me

@grenery8 Was always getting yelled at by the nuns and teachers and school psychologists for hanging out with the “bad guys” from other schools.

Though I don't see nuns often now, I don't feel anything when I see them. Its just like, "oh, a nun" and that's the most of it. During my school days, I see them everyday as I studied in a private Catholic school run by the SSpS or Holy Spirit sisters. Maybe I just got so used to their presence that it has just become a common thing for me up until now.

when i was in high school, there was a church next to us so we greeted them often or just me but in a bigger city, i learned, it is not a big deal if we don't greet them you attended both primary and secondary catholic school? were they strict?
well said; you can get used to their presence

Most of the nuns in the US no longer wear a habit, so it is kind of hard to tell them apart from the general population. I am sure they have good and bad days like everyone else.

@grenery8 I guess their order doesn't require it?

@snowy22315 you are right and every catholic or christian or other church is different in every country.

i saw nuns only in black; other nuns, in other colours are not so known to me. i saw monks too but it was 2 years ago. they were young monks and they belonged to order of st. francis, in brown attire but with good sneakers. they didn't look poor like st. francis preached
