Catholics Confused And Torn Between Ash Wednesday And Valentines

The cross-shaped ash sign is meant to symbolise man’s earthly demise, but it also remind believers that death is not the end, thanks to God’s ultimate act of love when He let Jesus Christ die on the cross so that believers can live eternally.

Agnes Aineah, a journalist, said she would sacrifice her plans to observe Ash Wednesday, which she says is more than a human relationship.

In Nairobi, vendors increased flower prices yesterday in anticipation of more buyers today.

Alex Gagonyo said a single rose stem that usually costs Sh30 is now Sh50 while a basket arrangement is Sh1,500 from Sh1,000 previously.

The vendors are confident they will not lack a market as many Nairobians interviewed by The Standard said they planned to buy flowers and chocolate for their partners.

“Flowers and chocolates cannot be discussed. It’s Valentine’s Day,” said Janet Gachie, a city resident.

Samson Muthii also said he would buy a bouquet of flowers for his girlfriend to remind her that he treasures their relationship.
