lent...

Every year I give up something for Lent. Sure, I'm not Catholic, but I think that the season of Lent can be a major learning, and growing experience. Last year I gave up texting. The year before that I gave up Starbucks. This year I think I'm going to give up laziness. Yeah, it's kind of a tough one. I just think of all of the times I could be up doing something... anything! However, I end up choosing to watch TV, or to be on the computer. I'm not saying those things are bad in and of themselves, I mean 95% of my job is on the computer, and I'm not too much of a TV watcher, I just notice that I easily fall into a pattern of eating chips on the couch before taking a walk.

I'm not exactly sure how to keep myself accountable, but I guess just making the decision will make me think more about what I'm doing and why I'm doing it. So here's to the next 40 days!! May it be...well... productive!
