Good Friday

Today mark the day where Jesus Christ being crucified, died and was buried. This is one of the most important day in the Christian calender where it involve a number of readings and meditations. As for Roman Catholic (RC) Christians, today also known as the Fast Day where RC Christians only have a small amount of food for the whole day as a commemoration of Jesus's death.

The last time i celebrated Good Friday in a true religious way is when i was first baptised back in 1996, i was 17 then. Back then the whole celebration through out the week was fascinating as that was the first time i was exposed to this custom. Since then i never actually participate in this celebration the way a Christian should be, which make me feel sort of guilty sometimes. I really hope i can do that especially when i still here in England to endure the way it is celebrated compare to back in home.
