I wanted to be a nun for years. I used to dream for hours on end about being a nun. Muslims, however, don't believe in monasticism. I wanted to establish the first Muslim women's convent (of sorts) - for all us unmarried women who wanted to be in community and do kickass things in our society like those women in Sister Act.

I am working on starting a UU monastery. It's really hard to get UUs to picture what that might be like.
