Ash Wednesday



I love holy days of obligation. I spend the whole day at work trying to remind myself that I am not hungry, and this is all part of the process. But you know what, Jesus didn't have to deal with Girl Scout Cookies being delivered yesterday and today.

But I went to mass tonight, but apparently my hunger is causing me to look stressed out. Yay - that makes me feel better. I need a cookie...

In all seriousness, the hunger is only a minor setback. What I really want is to try and have some peace this Lenten season. Some people give things up, but what I am trying to do is put my life in perspective and meditate. I hope this goes along with my new life that I am starting, but of course I seem to be running into some resistance.

I think meditation is a great focus!
