Well. Keeping this New Year's Resolution is going easy. π

So how was your Valentine's Day (since, as aforementioned, I am #ratherlatetothepartay)?
If it was lonely and full of watching chick-flicks and rom coms while eating straight out of the tub of ice cream... I feel you.
but seriously though I'd rather be watching movies and eating ice cream all the time, not just on valentine's AND NO, IT'S NOT HEALTHY. I KNOW. xD
Anyway, enough about feeling sorry for ourselves.
Instead of focusing on what we didn't get for Valentine's Day (which, sadly, is all too easy to do), focus instead on what you gave. Giving is much better than getting, even though getting stuff like chocolate and cards is fun!
Doing something special for another is the best thing ever. And it makes one feel really great too. Seeing the smile on a sibling's face or the happy glow in a friend's cheeks just fills one with peace and joy. As the Prayer of St. Francis says: "For it is in giving that we receive". That, my friends, is where true peace starts. And when you find your piece---
--(sorry I had to xD ) then you won't be worrying about what you didn't get. :)
That being said, today is Mardi Gras!!! (or yesterday was, depending on when you read this)
I was so shocked to find out that some of my northern friends from my online school DIDN"T HAVE MARDI GRAS PARADES WHERE THEY LIVED? THAT MADE ME SAD?? ALSO THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT A CRAWFISH BOIL WAS??? i was like "omgosh y'all need to come down here RIGHT NOW. WE GON TREAT YOU RIGHT" xD
And tomorrow (or today), is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent! That being said, y'all probably won't see me in April (notlikeyoueverseemebutyougetthepoint:P). I know, I know, it was my nEw YeAr'S rEsOlUtIoN to post every month, but there have been some slight changes. πππ π
Catholics Takin' On Lent Be Like:
lol.
Anyway, I got my February post in (barely in time, haha you didn't see nothin')!
SEE Y'ALLZ NEXT MONTH :DDD
Um . . . yeah, I have no idea what a crawfish boil is. XD And no, we don’t have Mardi Gras parades in my area. π disadvantages of being a northerner, I guess. . . .
ReplyDeleteBut YAY a Lacy post! And that Lent GIF is so incredibly accurate. <3
