Day 19: Good Friday

I forgot to log an entry for yesterday! But here are some thoughts I shared on Facebook yesterday:

Good Fridays are silent. In the Philippines, I remember when I was younger, no one goes out on a Good Friday. All the shops used to be closed and broadcast TV channels were offline (or running reruns of 7th Heaven). We may visit the church, but even then, there is no regular mass. It's a sombre day to reflect on Jesus' death on the cross.

It was a quiet Good Friday for me. I spent a few moments in reflection and I prayed especially for those who are ill and lonely during these times.
