Fasting and Abstinence
It is the Lenten Season once again and I am one with my fellow Roman Catholics who practice fasting and abstinence during this season. It's Friday and we cannot eat red meat.

Feast of the Black Nazarene: An Annual Outpouring of Faithful Devotion

There was this New Year episode in the TV series Ally McBeal that I wouldn’t forget.

Thank God for new beginnings
22 Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.

When You Believe…
Life is indeed full of miracles if we're only keen enough to notice it. It is indeed true that miracles happen everyday but oftentimes we're not able to notice it because of our lack of faith.Yes, one can become blind by seeing each day as just a similar one with the other days that had passed.
