To know more about my religion, I read books and other published materials of the Roman catholic, other Christian denominations, other religions aside from Christianity. Of all the things I learned, there is only one thing that determines our sincerity of all the things that we do when performing our religious rituals: love. This is aptly explained in 1Cor13. For me, Lent, as commenced by Ash Wednesday, is an opportunity for inward examination of my words and actions of the past year, thereby an opportunity for a better self for the existing year.
