I'm not sure why but we are upon my most favorite time of the year: Lent.
I do apologize, this may get a little religious...but we all need something to believe in. For now I'm still into Christianity.
Anyway, I'm not sure why I like Lent. Maybe I like the self-reflection. Maybe I like the discipline. Maybe I like the hope for a brighter future. Maybe I'm just a masochist.
Anyway, I have not yet decided what I'm going to give up...if anything--or maybe I'll add something new.
Today is Ash Wednesday, the most penitential day in the Church year. I have so much to be repentant for. Unfortunately, I'm not going to divulge any of my juicy secrets here. Let's just say there's a list, and I'm not sure it's anywhere near complete. But I'm learning the acceptance of the flaws, and the embrace of the imperfections. So thankfully the list is a little shorter than last year.
Anyway, I have no idea what this post is about. It is very early in the morning after a terribly long day and I'm trying to postpone going to bed as long as possible and wasting your time whilst I do it.
So, I'll just leave you with this: take some time in the coming days for self-reflection. Give thanks for the things that you have and say a prayer for those who go without. There are a lot of them, and there is no reason for it.
I'll hopefully be posting a little bit more during this time keeping everyone up to date on my life. I do so hope that there is good news to report in the VERY near future. But we shall see.
Sorry for the last coupla posts I know they've been boring. But sometimes that's just the way life it.

It's been nearly a week. Where are these regular posts of which you speak???
PS, there is no reason to apologize for what you believe. Embrace it, treasure it. Only apologize when your beliefs become self-righteousness.
Anyway, take care,
Jon-Marc
