Lent
The season of Lent is upon us and although I'm not Catholic, I have over the years adopted the practice of giving something up during these six weeks. My normal Lent sacrifice is any type of sweets and dessert. But, those are basically already gone so I've had to find something else. I've considered a lot of things--bread, deep fried foods--interestingly, they all seem to revolve around food. I do think I'll give up deep fried which means no fries, no fried chicken, no hush puppies and worst of all no tater tots. And I may get rid of superfluous bread. I'd say bread altogether, but I'm not sure I can do it. But the one thing I've thought about and not yet made a commitment to is giving up laziness where exercise is concerned. I NEED to exercise and this may be a way to jump start it. I can justify not exercising when it's just me, but where God's concerned, my justifications are useless. So, here goes people... I'm giving up my lack of exercise for Lent. God, help me.
