Anyone Observing Lent?

yeah yeah
I was trying to think of somethings that would be good for me to 'give up' in observance of lent. I think I pretty much have what I am going to give up. I am just making sure that it is good enough for me.

Anyone else going to be participating in lent?

I do it every year, even thu I am not catholic. I think it is positive thing to abstain from something you enjoy, and sometimes it's a good way to give up bad habits. I did fried food one year, and I know that one was really hard.


Well not only catholic's do it. :smile: I am not catholic, nor is the church that I attend. But we do observe it. Well the church does, and I do, I dont know about the rest of the congregation.

But yeah, and what I am giving up is something very similar to yours. But a big majority. :smile: do you have any idea of what you are going to give up this year?

Well I gave up caffeine about 2.5 weeks ago for another reason. It is hard.. but I have. And it is getting easier. I am giving up fast food, along with cussing (the best I can...I know that will be hard) And I am serriously thinking of giving up what cmcdanal said. LOL (that part will just start a day late)
