Today is Fat Tuesday, the day when you can indulge one last time in whatever you are going to give up for Lent. My mom has given up sweets for Lent for years, and I never knew how she did it. A few years ago, I gave up chocolate and about killed over and died! But this year, I'm going to take the plunge and give up desserts. One of my friends here in Atlanta is giving up desserts with me, so we're going to cry together during the hard times! The point of Lent is to give up something that is difficult so that you remember what Christ gave up for us when he died on the cross so that we could all be saved. I think that this will be the hardest Lent for me yet, but I'm prepared. There are going to be some social situations come up that will make it really difficult to say no, but I know I can be strong.
Are any of you giving up something for Lent? If so, please share!
