Among Friends

[Icegoddess]

I don't do Lent.  I'm Baptist; we already gave up everything.  (It's a joke, and I really am a Baptist, so don't hate on me.)

I have a friend who decided one year to give up doing Keto for Lent.  I'm not Catholic, but I was going "Whaaaat?  Isn't the purpose of Lent to sacrifice?  Not to treat yourself."

@DottieBlue  Thanks, but I am just doing my part.

My feeling is that most of us have given up a lot of things this year and it is time for a change.  Instead of giving something up for Lent, why not add something that will benefit someone else.  It could be to cook a nice dinner every night if you have family still at home or just for yourself.  Maybe walk your elderly neighbor's dog every day.  

For me, I am adding days to feed the feral colony at our local deli/post office, and I am adding sardines and mackeral, because the cats really like those extra treats.  I think this is better for me than giving up something that I do not really care about.

To me, it is all about interpretation.

I think that is a spectacular idea! God Bless you for helping care for these cats.
