I think I will give up a little more tolerance, a tad of brain power, a tweak of mobility a smidgeon of skin elasticity, a a wee bit on the looks. |

Kitty.......giving up certain things for Lent (fasting) is simply following in the steps of Christ when he fasted for 40 days in the desert. |

my ex-sister-in-law (my brother's ex-wife) used to ask me every year what I was giving up for Lent. I'm not religious, and she was, when it suited her :-0 |
