***UPDATE***
Totally jumped the gun this year. Off by a month, but the head start in my Lenten sacrifice is my penance for a failure in checking dual sources. March 5th is Fat Tuesday and the 6th begins Lent.
I love Fat Tuesday. It makes me really focus on short term goals and intentions. Being the day before Ash Wednesday, Mardi Gras celebrations are the last hurrah before imparting serious change during the sacred days and nights of Lenten sacrifice. For Catholics, Lent represents prayer, fasting, and giving. For me, it represents all of that and thoughtful reflections with positive motivation. Enjoy the carnival today and pay extra attention to a better world over the next 40 days and 40 nights.
