As we believe in Christ our Lord who died for us in order save mankind, which is being ushered in by the coming Holy Week, many of us will remember, that it is time reconcile with our merciful Creator, if we believe in a life ater death.
The goals of the Lenten season, has always been focused, on our love for Jesus Christ, by repenting our transgressions, abstaining and fasting and the giving of alms or doing charity works for our fellowmen. As our Christ has loved us, so must we love our neighbors and enemies.
I do hope you will celebrate Holy Week with the utmost observance of love, reverence and gratitude for what our Christ has done continually for us.

When one feels abandoned, one need turn to_ the readings of Psalms from the Old Testament of the Bible. Reading the Lord’s teachings makes you feel nurtured and blessed.
It_ is no denial HE has always given us the best, yet we still feel lost and astray. We need to_ listen and heed without hesitation. HE gives us enlightenment and leads us to_ the right path.
Often, it_ is us who_abandon HIM. We forgot to_ call on HIM many times or even not at all. HE’s always been with us.
I had my own share of this but when I realized my earth life has not given me enough, I learned to_ step back and trace my steps forward towards HIM. That made me realized HE’s present in everything I do and have.
There’s_ an only_ goal left for me work on. My ministry and service_ to_ HIM for the rest of my life and I look_ forward to_ the promise of eternal life.

The Bible has said, "forgive or you will not be forgiven."
I have long pondered on because I've not ridden
All the aches and pains I had underwent for years
I had nurtured a stone heart that I could hardly bear.
But this was yesteryears because I have faced
That though forgiveness is hard it has made
My life in turmoil with the lucidity and temerity
That my endeavors sans in sense and serenity
Now I can say I have learned my pieces in all
Carrying a heavy heart is far from life's enthrall
Joys you have abstained from is so compelling
In order to achieve a life that is said satisfying.
That when I face my Creator He would say
You have learned a lot to come a long way
The truth is always the light I bore your sins
I've given you forgiveness in you it should be seen.

If I do not speak
Either am meditating
Or probably retrospecting.
If I am monosyllabic
Could mean no understanding
Surely it can be perplexing.
If I do not smile
Maybe am hurting
Something must be saddening.
If I just nod
Search your meaning
Could I be approving.
If I smirk
It could mean am dissenting
Perhaps also unbelieving.
If I sigh deeply
Am hardly expressing
However am still listening.
If I only stare
Be alert its disturbing
I want more explaining
If I do not eat
Not because it's unappealing
I could just be dieting.
If I am saying, "No!"
Better accept am uncompromising
Do not keep insisting.
And if I do not post
What could I be thinking
May have run out of what's interesting.
These are some of my expressions
All bottled up feelings
You can keep guessing.

Of course you get it
It's contagious!
If you are carefree
you get contaminated
Not by touch alone
Perhaps this grave thought
That you will succumb.
You've been vulnerable
Can you be an exemption?
True it gets scary
Unknowing how it ends
But you will not give in
Because you know
You are strong in all regards
The days taught you so
It could be different
Yet you can get
An unexpected termination
Will you gamble?
It's not yours to resist
But somehow you feel
You're alive
There's more to be done
You don't want this
Do you?

Signs are of old veins
Saga of tales made from love
Tracks full of wisdom.

Caution: This is a narrative that is informative.
i've encountered this very interesting information about Sweden. Just for basic facts, Sweden occupies the greater mass of the Scandanavia Peninsula and adjacent the countries of Norway, Denmark and Finland. A country where the sun sets minimally and cold weather is typical of it.
The houses eternally keep their lights open on a window sill or near their windows, during night time, so you could see a town or county alive during the stillnes of the night. This is a tradition that has identified the country for centuries.
You may view this as wasteful consumption but on the part of Sweden which depends majorly on hydro resources, this practice is most sincerely adequate for their purposes, because..
1. The tradition gives the country a pretty image with its well-lit effect on streets, facade of building structures that conveys a well lived place and projecting a friendly countenance of its neighborhood and nation.
2. Being a communal country, leaving lights on their homes gives comfort and serenity to its dwellers, where the ambiance of peace and security pervade the atmosphere. This wards off intruders even if there is no one inside the house.
3. The country is typically more on the dark side because the sun shines too little, it gives the home a diffused light throughout the darkness season creating this sunlight illusion.
4. Swedish have always this penchant for beauty and cleanliness so a visual beauty and clean aura of the house is well maintained throughout.
In the photos added, you would see how bright and beautiful the chalets in the country can get.
This piece of information added thoughts to my already prolific mind, that i would like to ask, how amenable are you to keep your house always lit, during dark times, assuming the of energy is minimal of even if not? Would you prefer a dark room to sleep in? What thoughts do you usually have when caught or staying in a dark room?
