LENT

What a wonderful time of prayer and reflection! We fasted on Ash Wednesday... It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I used prayer and meditation to get me through. We also ended up going to mass at 7pm...and immediately to the grocery store. Oh, the stares we got...(from having ashes on our foreheads.)

We're giving up meat for lent... 40 days. That's a long time. The idea is to create a hole for the Spirit to fill... There's definitely a hole, allright. I just need to work harder on praying. Finding "alone" time and silence isn't as easy as it seems.........................................
