It was the 40 days fasting period this year from March-April 22nd 2011, a good period to miss the best non-veggie dishes & drinks. Lot of prayers and concentration to God in means of praying together, house blessings & attending church function at times.
Why did i started to pen down few lines - is that missed my special dishes and parties during the Lent season as its been a practice for the last 3 years were earlier used to keep one time fasting for the 40 days, but age is catching up now slowly - so now fasting cannot be done for half day but just a penance to stay fit and fine for the other days of the year.
When attended Good Friday & Easter Mass , felt that God must have taken more pain for us than me to fight for our good lives at that time,can't even think of a day without our favorite food - seems world has changed a lot or we have changed according to time , more priorities for all pleasures given - as its the race running to achieve the best in life and provide the best at any price.
I include myself also in the same rat race, but can't hold back as it takes a lot of potential needed with the power to say no and make a new path to sustain in this era.
Memories of childhood - happy with whats given , be it small or big, size never matters, just that timely help, be it toy, food or affection is taken care.
I envy those days and would like to cherish still.....
