Lent may only apply to Christians, but if you are one and are celebrating Lent, what are you giving up starting tomorrow? Or, if you're not a Christian or don't celebrate Lent, what's one thing you would give up? Or the other way around, what's one thing you don't think you'd ever be able to?
Starting tommorow, I'm giving chocolate and fast food. I have up chocolate last year for Lent, too, and ooooh-wee, the first couple weeks were terrible. |

^Yes, the goal is to give up something difficult, so that everytime you don't have so-and-so, you think of God and the sacrfice you're making. Now, whether someone considers giving up something easy is cheating is upto them. Personally, I see that as taking the easy way out.
