Jac, Mr. Llama, and I were all raised Catholic, but I’m the only one of us that still practices. Lent tends to be one of those rare occasions when we talk about religion at home, because I make some grandiose promise to give up something I love, which I usually fail to keep. For those of you that aren’t Catholic, Lent is the 40 days leading up to Easter. Traditionally, Catholics fast and make personal sacrifices and “offer our suffering up to the Lord.”
That was always a strange concept for me, and Lent is a strange 40 days of my life. On the one hand, I want to be a good Catholic and on the other, I can’t imagine God sitting up in Heaven and looking down, saying to himself, “THE ONLY WAY I’LL KNOW MEGAN-ANNE LOVES ME IS IF SHE STOPS EATING OREOS FOR THE NEXT 40 DAYS.”
(God is super old and one can only assume that he talks with the caps lock stuck on.)
So this year, I’m going to try doing things a little differently. I’m going to keep eating Oreo’s. I might even eat more Oreo’s. But, I am going to make a special effort to give back and serve my community. I know many of you are not Catholic or even Christian, but no matter what you believe in, I think we can all agree that it’s worthwhile to spend some time making the world a better place. I hope you’ll consider joining me this month and do something nice for someone else.
To get us off on the right foot, I begin my 40 days of awesomeness with a free pattern! Please enjoy the worlds greatest slippers.
