Photo was taken yesterday evening at Glen Rovers Hurling & Football Club, Ballyvolane/Blackpool, Cork (Irl)

Hurling is one of the fastest games in the world. This photo picks up on some of the action where players are constantly waiting, watching, anticipating and literally jumping into positions. The game last evening between Glen Rovers V Erin’s Own marked the official switching on of the floodlights at Glen Rover’s home pitch.

As we move into the second weekend of Lent, Ash Wednesday is becoming a distant memory. The initial burst of enthusiasm at the beginning of Lent is hard to maintain. Sometimes it even fizzles out after a few days. At least it’s comforting to know that we’re not on our own and it’s normal and human. It would be a pity though to throw the towel in. Why not use today and this weekend to do something good and positive. It could be a great starter in getting my Lenten journey back on track again. It’s not about changing the world but much more about improving my own personal journey through these weeks of Lent.
