I could not decide what to talk about today and then I thought about how today is “Ash Wednesday.” I am Catholic and so today is the start of lent. 40 days where before Easter, getting ready for Christ. Today we can not eat meat and every Friday until Easter as well. We also pick something that would be very hard for us to give up, and we do, for 40 DAYS! Haha It actually really is hard thought because I am picking desserts and that is my favorite thing in the world, I would much rather have desserts than eat a steak dinner! But whenever I start complaining then I think about how Jesus gave up his whole life for us along with so many other sacrifices throughout his life.
I know this may seem off topic of Ash Wednesday but not really because I am talking about Religion. I do not really understand why there are so many religions that all worship God our savior. In church last week the Gospel was talking about how not to be separated. That all who love God should all be together and not branch out for those branches will be broken. I am not saying any religion is bad at all I just do not understand how all the different types of religion started in the first place and why? Obviously there are some issues that are different but I think the main one, and the biggest one, is that we all believe that God is our Savior. So think about the difference if we were all together; how much more fellowship and worship could we bring and create with one group that big!?

Good job. It's a really amazing when you start to think about applying, really applying, what you believe to your "real life," isn't it? Peace be with you.
