And meatloaf, I don't like it at all. But I still will make it for my husband!<br /> Love DiDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429812875586479256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-94747407415633325.post-19588035816782613102010-02-23T19:50:38.834-06:002010-02-23T19:50:38.834-06:00Love this kind of joy.

As I reflected on what ...What a wonderful analogy! As I reflected on what you said about the joylessness of Lent, it came to mine that the Lord taught us to carry ourselves without somberness and sadness in our penance, but carrying it with a smile, looking "good" so no one would know. So after I thought about it, you're right, Lent makes us feel joyless, not necessarily because we are supposed to be, but because everyone expected it. I think in our humanity we want to be sure that others see us "joyless." If we are happy we must not be suffering enough...Hum! Will work on the smile today. And when someone offers me a chocolate I will simply say "No, thank you," not "No, thank you, it's Lent and I GAVE it up! I need to stop the PITY PARTY!!Really a very good post!!

b) I'...a) my kids are that way about sweeping.<br /><br />b) I'll bet you had one CLEAN floor!<br /><br />c) I think somewhere it goes from being a thrill to being a chore...like the difference in being told to read The Great Gatsby and picking it up 10 years later to read it for yourself.<br /><br /><br />d) we love meatloaf! wanna trade recipies?<br /><br />e) mostly I use the spoon to mix my meatloaf.......but sometimes you just have to doff the rings and dig in yaknow?? ;-)MightyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02563721884001643857noreply@blogger.com
