Because I want to remember

It is the best time of the year, and specially THIS year, to leave in the past some things that were keeping me distracted and confused. Now I start again, living alone, in peace. Alone, but surrounded with great new friends.

I heard this "commitment" through a catholic radio (that now I hear very often) and I thought this is a good guide on what to do during Lent.
