It’s Lent and everybody’s slightly pissed off. They are counting the days until Easter, not to celebrate the glorious resurrection of our Lord and Saviour. No, they are counting down the days until they can have a drink, a cigarette or a piece of chocolate.
Welcome to my world. I prayed for years, no for decades, that God would take away my craving for alcohol. When I started Weight Watchers and my alcohol points outnumbered my food intake, I had to face the music. I pulled the band aid off all at once and boy did it hurt. It still does. So, I’m a little bit pissed off all the time. That is, until I listen to a beautiful song, eat anything chocolate, feel the warm sun on my face, wake up without a headache, sip my morning coffee, and wait for pot to be legal in Texas ;).
that is a beautiful, poignant post.
