I agree, that to some point Lent is not observed in the way that it should be ideally. and it irks me a little (okay, it irks me a lot) that people seem to use Lent as a diet a lot of times.
I personally observe it because I love the meaning and symbolism behind it. I also like that Christians talk about it, because if you are observing it sincerely, it's nice to have others to support you and use Lent to get deeper in unity.
Anywho - I'm giving up caffeine for Lent. I rely on it WAY too much to get me going and then keep me going. I need to rely on His strength rather than fake strength....so, that's one thing I'm doing...and prayers would be appreciated because caffeine withdrawal has gotten me every time I've tried to give it up so far
