Do the ASH WEDNESDAY and the LENT: Latest DANCE Craze

THE ASH WEDNESDAY

THE LENT


Lets  have some Fun !!!!!


DO THE ASH WEDNESDAY with ME !

This way your covered by any God anywhere in the universe, or a higher power or nothing at all.   

What's the harm?


Today is Ash Wednesday 's Rock 'n Roll holiday.


Think of this day as New Years Eve 2, because you were too drunk to remember New Years Eve 1.

Do the Ash Wednesday today and forget about all that religious stuff. You are all God's children (or not) and this is just a special way to check in with the Big Guy... or your conscience and say, "Hi".

Follow along with me. If you please.

You don't need a Church to do The Ash Wednesday.

You don't need to be Catholic, or even religious.

The Ash Wednesday  is a humble dance a reminder that we all messed-up. It is a symbolic ceremony, a fun thing to do at the office with your coworkers, or with your kids at home. It is a simple, thoughtful time to think a little about the past year and forgive yourself for messing-up. Like I said, this is an easy dance that  anyone can do at  any age or any denomination... even atheists, or agnostics !

And you don't have to head to a church! Just get a spoonful of dirt from the back yard add a drop of water just to make it mucky and you are all set.

If you don't have dirt use some coffee grounds, you can get used coffee grounds anywhere so there is no excuse.

Dip your index finger into the dirt.

If you are traditionally minded you can  repeat, "The father the son and the holy spirit while making a cross on your head".

If  this is not going to fly, wet your finger in the dirt or the coffee and make a dot anywhere on your face and say, "Everyone makes mistakes but  I will also learn from them".

If you've got this far, you have completed the "Ash" Part of the Ash Wednesday.  You are cooking with gas. If you can't go further don't sweat it!

All you have to do for the Lent part is give up a little something as a symbolic gesture. This is the second part of doing the Ash Wednesday and this move is called The Lent.

The Lent is a little daily reminder that you have messed-up and your sorry. It's like a time out. You were naughty and you must pay the price.  You can give up the chocolate chip cookies, maybe the sugar in your coffee, purchasing shoes or a new tie. 

Some people do it for 40 days but  I suggest you count from today til 30 days because then Lent would end on April Fools Day and that will be really cool

At the end of the 30 days you get bragging rights. If I had the budget I would sent you a T-shirt.

Mark your Calendars. April Fools Day is the end of Ash Wednesday and Lent

So celebrate some naughty with the Little Trickster in ya!!!!!

Do the ASH WEDNESDAY  and the LENT


This way And your covered by any God anywhere, or, the universe, or a higher power of nothing at all.    What's the harm.
