Ash Wednesday is the beginning of the Lenten Season where it is also the time to reflect upon my life, spiritually..wholly..
it's a time to fast and abstain. for me, it is not merely to fast or abstain, but it is also a challenge for me to fight temptation, and it's food (meat) to begin with, where i can be easily fall for (and some other things)..other than that, it is also a promise i made to myself and i know i can go through this with God's help.
yes, in normal days, it would not be easy, but i believe, if i WANT, and with God to strengthen me, i CAN do it.

Happy Fasting!
"..when you fast do not put on a gloomy look as the hypocrites do; they pull long faces to let men know they are fasting. i tell you solemnly, they have had their reward. but when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that no one will know you are fasting except your father who sees all that is done in secret; and your Father who sees all that is done in secret will reward you.." Matt 6: 16-18
to bunie: we did it last year, and surely we can do it again this time..jia you! jia you! ;o)
