What do you give up for Lent?

February 6th begins the season of Lent. Every year I give up coffee and chocolate (I cannot actually fast because of my health). I also give up buying those little extras like Starbucks, lunches and dinners out and so on. I then calculate the savings from this, and donate it to a local charity, such as a shelter or food bank.

Lent is also a time of prayer and meditation, which seems to go well with the rainy, cold weather we’ve been having lately. There is always plenty to reflect upon in this life.
