Eating chocolate and reading

 

Easter Tide goes on and I am delighted eating my chocolates. 

I deprived myself in Lent so now I eat all I want.

It's not that we can't eat them in Lent, it's just that was one of my sacrifices, so now I enjoy this legitimate pleasure and, at the same time, I read and read, in every bit of time I have.

I'm very inclined to books of old times, not novels about those times, books that were written then. When I'm reading them I'm there and I am one of those characters. It's good also to inspire me now, for real life.

I read novels written in the 19th century and in the first decades of the 20th. Not some talking about harsh life, far from God and with low morals, for that I just need to open the television or even to look to many people. I prefer novels with characters who have the same mentality as I have. Morals are not just for some era, God expect from us a clean life whatever time we live.

So I read and feel good. And I eat chocolates as I do since my childhood. And pre teen years, when I discovered those nice books by the hand of my grandmother.  I never stopped reading - or eating chocolate. 😉

Lent is very important but Easter Time is soo good.

Thanks be to God.

I can't comment back again

Something strange is preventing me again to answer to your nice comments.

But I do like reading them, keep commenting. 😉

Anyway, happy weekend.

Easter Adverts

 

There is something in the old times, when life, in spite of problems that people have them in every era, that is so delightful to me, so inspiring and that gives me peace and the will to live.

 

Through past decades adverts we can jump in those nice times. They are so nice.

I leave you here with some.

And chocolates, we could not miss them. 

Easter vintage

  

It's so pleasent to see those old, vintage Easter cards, many from the beginning of the 20th century.

They are so feminine and delicate and others are just so funny.

Look at all these delightful cards. Enjoy.

  

 

 

 

Such peace.

 Hail, full of Grace ! The Lord is with you !

Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God. 

You will conceive and give birth to a son and you are to call him Jesus

The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you

And Mary said:

Behold, I am the servant of the Lord

Let it be done to  me according to your word
