Lent - giving anything up?

[Schtankybampo]

Oh, bugger, is it lent again already?

I was raised catholic. Did the whole thing. Yes, I still have the uniform. No, it doesn't look anything like the movies. People don't seem to realise that there is nothing inticing about a uni-piece navy jumper with the waist somewhere around your ankles.

I'm lapsed, of course. I think instead of giving anything up at all, I'll just try and be nice to people. I think that's the point of what organized religion was supposed to be trying to tell us anyway. So, c'mon non-giving-up people! Lets just lead the "Be Nice" revolution!

Now, now, Samantha, being nice to people is probably the rudest thing you can do. At least in LA. They have no idea how to handle it. It's so completely alien to them that most of the time they run away in fear.

I'm not *completely* altruistic.

No, my family never has been too big on the giving up something for Lent thing. I guess some of us do it now and then, but it's not a huge deal. All I ever do regularly is the minimum suggestion of no meat on Fridays.

Has anyone considered giving up Catholocism for lent?

I had this sweet little girl in my class say in all seriousness:

"I tried to give up my chores, but my parents wouldn't let me."

The look on her face was priceless. She honestly thought that was a reasonable sacrifice, and was horribly disappointed by the rejection of her idea.

I'd rather not know, if it's all the same to you.

ahem. It was the Zombies. And if you let go of the tonearm while it's on the record, it might play music.
