What are you giving up for Lent

Well, I actually hadn't thought about what to give up for lent until Meebs came in and told me what her good friend James Ragan was giving up. (James is my new friend I told you about who has been battling bone cancer since he was 13.) There are actually a lot of things I could give up, but I decided to join him in giving up "cancer"! He has asked anyone to join him in giving up not the physical cancer, but the need to have what others have. There is no need to want the life that others have, or the want to be able to do what others do. Let's be happy with the way our lives are and accept the cards we have been dealt. Let's live our lives and be happy with who WE are! Let's not waste our time and energy on putting down others or being jealous. Let's all give up "cancer" and live OUR lives!!
