One of the things I'll never forget is when I asked a PNM what made her consider Recruitment, or something banal like that. She quietly said, "I've been terribly homesick." To do this, I admired that PNM. In that one quiet sentence, I knew that this would be a tremendous sister, one who would be kind and good to her sisters, and honest to a fault. I don't think everyone should use that sentence, or would appreciate hearing it, but I just wanted to hug her, and tell her that she'd be alright - but I couldn't. So, I said that I knew her problem, and wished that I could hug her but wasn't permitted to do so.

BTW, I was right. She pledged, and was a wonderful sister, even through five years.

Honesty goes a looooooong way!
