OnlySunshine Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 [quote name='Tally Marx' timestamp='1299545226' post='2218990'] Wow.... that would be amesome! I just might do that! I'd also like to make it a point to do the Stations [i]every[/i] day. For the past few Lents, I have given up all meat, I have given up time (spending more time in prayer, or more quality time with my family, or doing charity work), I gave up secular books, and I gave up sugar in my oatmeal (which I forced myself to eat every morning). [/quote] If you've never done the Way of the Cross from Mary's perspective, I highly recommend it. I bought this really beautiful booklet from the Church gift shop about the Stations and it shows it through her eyes. I've also listened to the stations from Mary's view online. It has no pictures, but the readings you listen to are very emotional. I was crying through the whole thing. If you listen to it, make sure you have a box of Kleenex nearby.

Jaime Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 [quote name='Semper Catholic' timestamp='1299542087' post='2218979'] >my face when people give up stuff they should have already given up ages ago >my face when Jesus thinks Lent is garbage Sorry lol giving up stuffing your face with sweets for a month is no way to go about anything. Thanking Jesus and living like him for 12 months out of the year is the only acceptable form of repayment. [/quote] You know Jesus invented Lent right?
