Today marks Ash Wednesday, the start of Lent, the traditional 40-day period of fasting and prayer before Easter. Although I am not Catholic, I have decided to give UP something this year (until Easter). You may, or may not, know that I am HOOKED to Facebook. So, after discussing Mardi Gras and Lent with my daughter she decided to give up Coke. I asked her what is something that mom should give up....her answer was Facebook! I thought it was a great idea, considering how Facebook consumes my time. So, that is what I will do! :)
I encourage you to think of one thing that you really enjoy and see if you can go without until Easter. For your health, for your mental sanity, to help you do better in school/work, to focus on something more important....whatever your reason is. My reason is... Facebook is NOTHING compared to the price Jesus paid for me! I can do without for a while to focus on more important things!
