Wednesday Caption - Lent Special!

DateWednesday, February 22, 2012 at 11:35AM AuthorCormac Heron

It's upon us again: Lent. An opportunity where we can forego something if we wish regardless of our beliefs - although it stems from the Christian faiths.

I gave up coffee one time and noticed my kidneys started to hurt, so I had to go back on it only to ween myself off it. Now four years later I am still a non-coffee drinker. 

This year I intend to give up chocolate, ice cream and all things sweet. (I'll still take naturally sweet things like fruit, honey and my wife.) I'd give up smoking and alcohol but I no longer do them either.

I think Lent is a good thing. It offers the second chance of the year after New Year's Day to make a new start on things. 

What are you giving up?

    I think this website holds some very wonderful info for everyone. "Je veux que les paysans mettent la poule au pot tous les dimanches." by King Henry IV of France.
