Lent

I've never "done" Lent before. I didn't grow up in a church that did that. I knew about it b/c I went to church with my Dad during summers and school breaks. Last year our Rector (who I miss terribly) pointed out that it's not just about giving something up. We could add activities that bring us closer to God (extra prayer, meditation, etc). So, Lent starts on March 9 and I'm trying to decide what to do, if anything. I'm trying to make some life changes and this could be just the kick-start I need. I'm thinking I will commit to my 15 minute yoga program once per day...no matter what. It really brings me peace and comfort, not to mention the physical benefits. The other thought running through my head is severly limiting my sugar intake. I did this on Weight Watchers Core plan, I know I can do it, I just don't want to. I guess I've got a few days to figure it out.
