Now here is one of my most favorite days of the year. This day was made for overindulgent people like myself. I must add, I am not a Catholic, never have been and never will be. I do know about Lent and have always wondered just why does Lent translate to eating fish.
Here is what Lent means for me.... I give up something that hinders my connection with HP in order to gain spiritual growth. Now for me eating fish for a week doesn't cut it. This year for Lent I am giving up being right. Being right takes me away from my HP, it gives me a false sense of security and feeds my already way to big ego. I will pause when I think/demand that I am right and turn over all thoughts/actions to my HP. I will remind myself .. this is Gods world. No matter how wrong/right something seems to me I just don't have all the information to truly judge any situation. I will keep ya'll posted on my progress.
As for today ...Fat Tuesday! I will live large, I will laugh till I cry, indulge in a chocolate chocolate chip muffin without guilt, I will love much and say thank you God for Fat Tuesday.
