today is ash wednesday, the beginning of lent. it's one of the many religious holiday that i can admit that i follow deeply yearly. i've never miss getting an ash since i can remember.
anyway, a friend/colleague of mine asked me today as soon as she saw the ash on my forehead what would i give up. the usual response would be (and it was the first thing she mentioned) no meat during the holy days especially on fridays. but i know myself pretty well that doing it will never workout. it's not that i have no will power to do so but for some reason, it just doesn't work. most often than not, I will forget about it.
the next suggestion was sex.......no comments on this one. this blog is g-rated so let us move on to the next option.
actually there is/was no other option. not until i read a story on cnn.com explaining the relevance of lent. one of the first suggestion mentioned was giving up facebook. i said to myself, if a friend of mine can resist from opening an account on FB, why can't I give it up for a few days...well a month and a half. i figured that before FB, i was doing other important stuff (well there was friendster..Lol). anyhow, i think that this is something that i can easily give up without any hesitation. so, i do hope i can make it. don't worry, i won't cheat. crossing my fingers and toes.
di ako masyado magtatatalak. at mag fa fast na rin ako sa pagging bully
ReplyDeleteI think yung "bawal kumain ng laman" refers to sex nga... haha hindi makamove on sa Xrated topic
