What to give up?

So, Lent is upon us once again. What to give up in order to remember once again the sacrifice of the cross is quite a tough decision. And that's before we get to the abstinance part.

Serlf-sacrifice or abstinance are a tad unusual in this day and age with few people actually practicing. I have just been to a service to mark the start of this six week period with 9 people including vicar, organist and reader. Even in the church, this is an unpopular time.

I have gone for that age-old favourite of giving chocolate a miss for a few weeks; tougher today as it is our main snack. I have also decided to do something positive and each day get in contact with a friend, showing them friendship and love,

In that spirit,
Love,
