Lent …

Lent, in the Christian church, a period of penitential preparation for Easter. In Western churches, it begins on Ash Wednesday, six and a half weeks before Easter, and provides for a 40-day fast (Sundays are excluded), in imitation of Jesus Christ’s fasting in the wilderness before he began his public ministry. In Eastern churches Lent begins on the Monday of the seventh week before Easter and ends on the Friday that is nine days before Easter. This 40-day “Great Lent” includes Saturdays and Sundays as relaxed fast days.

Memories …

This morning as I started my day I decided to take the time to reflect and read my past posts. Life is a journey. I thought how wonderful a blog can be. It is a reflection of one’s self and past life struggles. Much like a diary. I would recommend to everyone to start a diary or blog it is a good reflection of your inner self. Have a great day!
