Thanks guys

mfw i was fat enough at the start of Lent to do a real 40 day fast

mfw i didn't do it

Lmao mate

Mine is not 40 days

I started thursday to confess sunday

I Had to keep it at least 3 days

Then decided to stick to it till the end

can you take communion on Easter if you didn't keep the 40 days?

i thought not

I must ask my mother or the priest for this

I kept it only to confess

And most people around here keep just the last week

ah maybe next year i can do 40 days on salt water alone

hopefully i won't be fat enough to do that though

hmm maybe i can bloat up beforehand

Lmao

Isn't that a sin tho

idk

"Father, is it a sin to overeat for 2 months before Lent so I can not eat at all during?"

40 days on nothing but daily mass and water

hecc yeah

gas bill gonna be expensive

but it'll be worth it

salt too please though

epiphany salt

if that's sodium chloride or potassium chloride (hopefully both) then sure

it's just blessed on the epiphany

BATH SALTS AND WATER AND HUMAN FACES FOR 40 DAYS

I love my parents, but they're inept narcissists who only by the grace of God hold together our family. They were somehow both helicopter and extremely emotionally neglectful for my entire childhood, basically all I got from them was food, shelter, and material distraction. In spite of that, I think they tried, but they're broken people. At the very least they kept me in the faith and did good things for the church and christian school I attended. Because of that, I had a decent scriptural education, and after hearing the story of Solomon I prayed, at 6 years old, for his wisdom. I sure as hell got his weaknesses, and I'm sure if I'd dedicated my mind I'd have gotten a lot closer, but I see and have learned a lot from my parents, and I hope to raise a son greater than me in both mind and spirit. I believe that is where the wisdom I prayed for will shine.

Pottasium chloride isn't the one sold in pharmacies?

you can get that, but you don't need it that pure

NoSalt is good enough

helicopter what does thzt mean?

always "hovering" over you

and your every action

overbearing, always present in social situations, never let me develop social skills outside of school hours was the biggest thing

My childhood was difficult, having a brother and a single mother that didn't even take another husband. She did everything she could but that had taken a heavy toll on her. Her character changed, she became paranoid, I became wrothful, she took my brother to our father to stay forcefully because he was getting aggresive and tried to smack her in the head with a thick glass bottle

lmao are you from Eastern Europe?

That changed her, she was afraid of losing me too

Yeah lmao
