Time for giving up...

It's the season of lent, and for the first time, I am actually making a conscious decision to give up something for lent. I decided to give up coke lite (diet coke) 15 days ago. And it's killing me! I didn't realize how addicted I actually was! But it's so awesome, because everytime I crave it, I make a conscious decision to pray and reflect on what Christ did for us - He gave up his only son!! (A little more of a sacrifice than coke lite I would say!) So, despite the headaches and the bland (but good) water I'm drinking, I know it's good... I have an accountablilty partner for it too - Steve (a friend/collegue at school) has also given it up - which is great - someone I can share my moans and groans with!
