Well Lovers, tomorrow is Ash Wednesday and the beginning of lent. 40 days of giving it up……..
So a much needed break is in store………no more long winded posts from me. I always give up Freakscene
for lent because, it is entertainment. It’s time to chill and fast and read and pray and meditate. Morning, Noon and night.
The ashes remind us that no matter how much we strive for success and accomplishment…..the end result will
be the same for each of us………….compost!
Life is short and it’s nice to have fun…..it is impossible to describe to someone what getting in touch with God (my choice of words but you can insert your own) feels like, it was best for me to stop trying to understand and start experiencing. The best way to do that is to "tune into" God. Tuning in is easy…it just takes Prayer….talking to God and then Meditation. listening to God. My God receptor has really been falling down lately. Fast food prayers, prayers while driving or while trying to find matching socks or while sitting on the toilet and falling asleep while meditating and then "knowing" that God will forgive me because I work so hard and heck my heart is in the right place.
Lent comes to remind folks like me………….hey, wait a minute, how much of your life are you really sacrificing for the betterment of your soul/spirit…………..uhh, are you down to like less than 7% of your week spent on tuning into God……….like me………..Yikes……….lent comes to help us get back on track……….Dear God, help me to see that there is no they, only us.
Oh, give Anthony lots of Birthday wishes………..I’ll see you on the Monday after Easter! Peace.
