For me social media is something that eats up much of my time. I'm going to use the next fourty days to better myself and to get closer to God. 🙂

Catholic, usually. Represents the 40 days Jesus fasted in the desert. Starts on Ash Wednesday (March 1 this year) and lasts until Easter Sunday. Typically one gives up something they like doing during that period. Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) is the celebration beforehand.
