L – Lets
E – Eliminate
N – Negative
T – Thoughts Having said that, I learned to use soft words, less on exclamation point to make a point, bite my tongue. For those who are familiar with cognitive behaviour, this is what they teaches in the course. It all makes sense to me. This period is not all about me; it’s all about God whoever you conceive him to be, from Abba to Zen. They said God lives in us. Can you see the reflection of God in another person? Or let’s not even mention God. Can you see the goodness of a person? You see, I believe that we are all inherently good. Since you told me in my post Tell me and I will tell you mine, I will tell you the title of this list: Fasting and Feasting. I choose Feasting. Instead of giving up, I will give in and listen to the prompting of God. I will leave you with something to think about, a poem: “I shall pass this way but once; any good that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being; let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again. “ Etienne de Grellet (1773-1855); Quaker missionary Something to read:

Love the acrostic for Lent. Your post fits perfectly with Acts of Kindness week. Thank you for this post full of goodness, God, and lovingkindness, Seeker.
Thank you for your kind words, Kozo.
As it is Ash Wednesday I have just had my Polish neighbours very polite and lovely daughter to ask me two things, could I help her make a card for her boyfriend for Valentines day and also could I photograph her brothers first communion in June. Her grandparents are coming from Poland and as its the first communion I have been to, I am looking forward to it now that is positive thinking 🙂
Hi Pete. you are so good to others. Have a good day. Must go to work now.
Thank you, but I am just doing what is right and if we all did what is right the world would be a even lovelier place. 🙂

My goodness, You must have received that peaceful vibrations I was sending towards you because I wanted to use one of your blogs as an inspiration for my today’s post. Lo and behold here you are. This is so sweet of you, Summer. Thank you and now I found the post as well. Your post was about peace by acting and it resonates so much what I think of peace. Peace be you. Perpetua.

Very true about not passing this way again.
Your inner being will show up with your outer actions – a good thing to ponder on.
