HOW DO YOU SPEND YOUR HOLY WEEK?

*No offense to non Christian, Non Catholic readers and non-believers. I respect you all on how you will spend this kind of holidays.*


I stumble upon this question lately. i had observed how people are spending their Holy week. Especially the cool ones that aahm, how do I say or call it..? The celebrities and popular personalities planning their vacation. Even ordinary people. As What I perceived Catholic society now and Lent believers now, the solemness that should have been before Lenten season becomes a time where to leisure time, spending money and time for a tour abroad (not unless Pilgrims abroad), swimming in a beach and any kind of luxuries that they can’t insert in their regular time. 

This is should be the time of penance, repentance of sins, have been a time where we have to strengthen our spiritual relationship to God, brace or faith. Reflect to our Lord Jesus Christ when he died in a cross to save us from our sins. Somehow we can determine and resolve our own spiritual issues, and just concentrate the Holy Week commemoration.


There are so many things to do to have meaningful Holy Week without spending too much. We can do such as watching easter movies, Visiting churches together with family and love ones. Doing pilgrims on such holy places. Etc etc. or just stay at home and do some daily devotional prayers.


Somehow we should realized the true meaning of Lenten. Teach our young ones on how we truly observe and spend Lenten spiritual discipline. I don’t write this just to critic other people lifestyle or something. Of course at the end of the day we decide I and do our own thing depends on how we take, perceived and accept things. I just write what I am seeing.  

I am no writer or professional on working critics like this. This is just a glimpse on what I am observing in the catholic society now. I hope I deliver my words as gently as i can and no feelings hurt or offense taken. I do apologize if there's a misunderstanding occur from my words. Please just let me know if there's a need to delete this.


Yours truly,

Cassie

IT RAINS

BUT SUNSHINE TRICK ME

Last March 25 I woke in the morning with dark skies. It looks to it that it's going to rain and the worst part is, it's very cold, Even the water on the faucet is freezing. I  anticipate that it will rain all day that is why I wore long-sleeve semi see-through that has a leather detail. Yes it rains and to my surprise, when I am on my work the sun SHINES so bright that I felt the embarrassment of wearing warm clothing.
