Today is the beginning of Lent ~~~ a season of penance, reflection, and fasting which prepares us for Christ's Resurrection on Easter Sunday,
through which we attain redemption.
The ashes on our foreheads humble our hearts and reminds us that life passes away on Earth.
We remember this when we are told,
"Remember, man is dust, and unto dust you shall return."
It is Ash Wednesday today, woke up early to attend mass with hubby.
This (fruits) is all I had for brunch...a little sacrifice for this holy day.
How about you?
Are you also going to fast?
Or are you still going to eat meat/pork today?
As what my good friend Tata Lacson says: To "fast" or to "pass"?? ☺
A blessed day to us all, everyone.
Love and light,
SAL ♥
