Ash Wednesday

[avanta7]

I cried as the pastor put ashes on my forehead. Again. Sheesh, Communion Sundays and Ash Wednesday and Christmas and Easter and when singing certain hymns. They're getting used to seeing me bawl by now.

I shouldn't be so flippant about it.

My gratitude is so deep that it expresses itself through tears. I consider my life a gift from God, even on the bad days. Sobriety will do that for you.

What a lovely journal entry! I love that you cry when you're touched. I'm a big crybaby, too.

And off-topic but on-topic, did you ever see this book? I wrote the last journal entry after your post one day.

No, I never saw that

Thank you most sincerely, ant. *sniff* Now I'm teary again.

it's evidently going around :) I read rainbowbabe's post in Chit-Chat about her neighbor passing away, and totally cried this morning. Just trying to share the love :)
