Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday is the last day before Lent begins. In our culture of plenty Fat Tuesday is nothing more than another party. We already have all we want and most of us want far more than we need. And that goes for houses, cars, things, as well as food.
We are well feed every day not just on Mardi Gras. Enjoy the day. Celebrate. But remember there are those for whom eating well one day of the week means doing without others. And there are those for whom having all you want is not an option for even one day.
We are so blessed in The United States it is easy for us to forget that not everyone has the same opportunities.
