Fridays during Lent


are meant to be days of abstinence, unless it is Good Friday, which also includes fasting.

If you are reading this and you aren't Catholic, I shall explain: abstinence = no meat. Seafood is ok, but no beef, chicken, pork, venison, elk, pheasant, etc.

I hate to tell ya, but abstaining from meat on Fridays does nothing to help me become spiritually closer to Our Lord's suffering and passion because I LOVE SEAFOOD!!!

Should I feel guilty about this? Maybe. I'll think about it after I eat my shrimp salad sandwich for lunch.
