Season of Lent

The season of Lent has arrived, yet again!  Time seems to go around faster and faster every year.  And while I can't say that we always choose to give something up during this season it usually becomes more of something that we attempt to do to better ourselves and beliefs.  In the past we have tried giving things up and usually will not make it all that long.  So instead we feel it is better to try and really focus on living by our morals and beliefs and not let others influence us.  While that is fairly standard practice in our home anyhow, we do find that it does bring focus back to our lives and allows us to reflect on how we have and want to continue to live.  If there are changes to be made we may work on those, but mainly we reaffirm our relationship with our Lord, and each other.  So good luck to all who are working to keep their lenten promises and remember the reason for the season.  Have a great Lent season everyone!
