Sometimes you just gotta do it.

I just met a handsome monk...

I just met a handsome monk. He has spent his life abstaining from carnal pleasure. I found him ascetic-ically pleasing.

A man named Giles decided to join a monastic order.

Giles was quite sickly and prone to injury, but that did not stop him from studying the scriptures diligently and preparing his mind and body for an ascetic lifestyle. Eventually, he travelled to Rome and got admitted into a monastery, fulfilling his lifelong dream.

He now goes by Fra Giles.
