What did you give up for Lent? That's the question most people have in mind now. I've asked myself too the same. When in a context where more than half of the week I give up lunch (not because I want to but because I'm away at college) there's no point in giving up more of food! So that really brings me to ask what is it that I then give up so that I 'feel' it?
So for this Lent, I'm giving up 'discouragement'. May look odd but in this present moment, I think that's what I'm 'enjoying'! So why not give up that! The academic front has been challenging. And not used to being challenged intellectually, I find myself struggling. Over the past couple of months, I realise I've been wallowing in this pit of 'lethargic discouragement'. Time for some sacrifice!
