Hello ILPeeps!
I’m giving up a few things for lent;
Meat
Sweets
Soda
It may not seem like much, but each one is a sacrifice for me.
Is anyone else out there devout/ deluded/ masochistic enough to give up anything?
If you haven’t yet, it’s not too late to start. Ash Wednesday is only two days past, Easter is in 45 days. There’s plenty of good fasting time left!
Some things are easier to stick with than others.
I started giving up things for lent back in high school, when I called myself an atheist. I persisted in abstaining through my agnostic days. Now that I call myself a Lutheran, I’m still giving up for lent.
Every type of Chinese or Asian fare I have ever tried tastes ~way~ better with tofu. With tofu, you know it’s tofu. Since “everything” tastes like chicken, you can’t be sure it’s chicken.
i’ve noticed that the amount of time someone stays vegetarian is inversely related to how many times they write “VEGETARIAN 4 LIFE” on all their stuff (or how many times a day they tell people they’re vegetarian)
