LindaM · 61-69, F
i will give up something that i enjoy doing that i do everyday that makes me happy in the moment like eating chips, example..its a sacrifice because i love eating them lol and to give that up for 40 days makes me feel good because its a small thing to do for all the blessings in my life even thought all my struggles and hardships..its an easy thing for me to do ..does that make sense? @SW-User

This applies only for Catholics. Not all faiths or Religions require this.
LindaM · 61-69, F
you are right but its a nice jesture..I think anyways..@Carla1951
SageWanderer · 70-79, M
I have done the giving up thing and the do more that it becomes a sacrifice. It seems if I make a commitment to something, like cooking at the church fish fry, becomes more of a sacrifice to me. It never fails that those Wednesdays and Fridays always offer an alternative I'd much rather do.

@LindaM When we woke this morning I got up to make coffee and asked the wife what she wanted for breakfast. Her answer, "Cinnamon Rolls!".
LindaM · 61-69, F
bad but ive done it too lol @SageWanderer
SageWanderer · 70-79, M
@LindaM I wish Tim Horton's was still open here. Our local stop and go store doesn't have the best but they passed as good for her sweet tooth.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@LindaM Hm, I have the same response to that as I do to people who ask me about New Years resolutions.

If it's a change I want to make for the better, I don't need to wait until New Years or Lent to make the change, I just make the change and see how it goes.
LindaM · 61-69, F
that's fine :) @SumKindaMunster

SpaceCreature · 26-30, F
No, what's the point of Lent?
LindaM · 61-69, F
it is a period of 40 day fasting from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday..its like sacrificing something you really like in respect for "Jesus" who was crucified and died on the cross for us..if you believe in that which I believe in Jesus..i just don't preach it :) @SpaceCreature
