First Confession for Lent

Again i miss it.
should have written it down on my super large co-ordinate family movement calendar.
but it's not an event.
should have put in a prompt or alarm in the phone or some on-line site..
but it's not a to-do item.

Ash Wednesday is today. it is now 1248hours. I have reminded by now, my known world on facebook and alerted my church family to Lent. But I have not yet kept the day myself!

Perhaps it's because this is as much a deeply personal practice as it is a community one.

I need to want to do this - and I need help to want to do this.

1250hours. The day yet not done. Just before the kids tumble through the door...

I go face myself -
in His Light
and Love.
