Today's Gospel is the same one we hear on Ash Wednesday, taken from the Sermon on the Mount. We are warned about purity of intention. Am I charitable, prayerful, and abstemious because I want to draw nearer to God and my neighbours, or because I want to draw attention to myself?

Ladies and gentlemen I bring you the feelingantsy diet inspired by @frmo.bsky.social.

Suppose you have a box of mini muffins and eat all of them.

That’s greedy.

BUT if you have four boxes of mini muffins and eat 25% of them that’s abstemious & you have mini muffins if you get the munchies later
