I will ignore and not respond to stupid internet posts and will refrain from making any stupid posts of my own (after this one).

the one thing I always seem to manage to-do during the lent period is,... getting my financial records together (for taxes due April 15)

Cold showers..   which apparently  have health benefits too. That's not what made me do them but I'll take it

I'm back here  on phatmass for Lent.…

In addition, I am spending more time in mental prayer every day for 30 to 40  minutes at least. Every morning I  listen to a podcast called 10 minutes with Jesus that helps to fuel my thoughts throughout the day so that  I am prepared to enter into meditation.

also, abstaining from meat every day except Sundays.

 Some good advice I heard today:  considering the disciplines of fasting, prayer and almsgiving, focus more on that area which you are lacking,  without neglecting the rest.

Oh yes, spiritual reading is essential.

Mostly meditation and prayer for my now deceased forefather, late wife and our children's well being in this world and beyond
