So I've had ash put on my head and I am now ready for Lent except I am not quite sure what I am giving up etc.
At the moment the list is somewhat random:
1 Giving up listening to radio 4 in the car (long story, sermon point, don't want to be a
hypocrite)
2 Eating an orange every day - habit formed on retreat thought it would be an interesting discipline for Lent.
3 Read all four gospels in Lent... slight problem - in a fit of holiness I have already read two on retreat.
4 Reading Tom Wright's book Matthew for Lent - a bit a day for Lent.
5 Losing weight - not sure about this one - Catherine's idea
6 Go for walk with retreat buddies every wednesday instead of praying.
7 Do blog again... hence this blog.
8 I have already given up clergy chapter for Lent.
9 I think there's another one but I haven't come up with it yet.
Suggestion on a postcard to...
But please don't tell me that I should take something on for Lent because I think it's a cop out and I haven't got any space in my life.
Key word for today: Balance
