Why so serious?

You know, I was asked a question today about a fictional character being my roommate…. I picked the Joker from the Dark Knight.

If everyone had his cheery disposition, it would be a better place… (You’re thinking right now that I’ve lost my mind… maybe I have.) But really. Why do we get caught up in making plans? Why can’t we just let nature take it’s course?

I find myself stressing over school, finding a job, college, and other occurrences of life and people often remind me that I should just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of the season of Lent. It is a time for change in the new liturgical year. It leads us Christians into Easter – a sort of second new year. A time to make resolutions that are supported by the Church instead of the superficial promises we make on January 1.

I have my own set of “problems” that I would like to see resolved. Some character flaws if you will. We all have them… it’s part of being human.

Remember Catholic kids, no meat tomorrow and get dirty lol…

I’ll be up early tomorrow preparing for the Ash Wednesday Mass to be held at school tomorrow. Should be interesting… My musical opinion falls somewhere between what the Bishops say and what we play normally for Mass… I’ll have mixed feelings that I’ll need to sort out later…
