I'm not really christian nor a catholic.
I don't believe in anything more than I do anything else, but in my opinion certain traditions are very valid to today's society. For example, lent. To me, I always thought it amazing how a religion devoted a period of 40 days of "sacrifice" to better oneself. Now, if the person does not sacrifice one thing he/she truly mitigates as his/her obsession, it does not work out. But in the case the person does and succeeds, it creates a profound sense of accomplishment.
This is why I am going to partake in my own lent. Its important for me to take upon this task, because I am not very good at it... haha. If there are more portions of food and I'm not exactly full, I have a tendency to keep eating, no matter what. but enough about food. i'm not giving up food, it was just an example. :) Eating is important! Eating healthy is important! therefor to sacrifice "food" or large quantities of food is unhealthy. Lent is good, health is better ;) hahahaha
Anyway, I am going to give up... being lazy.
How will I do this? Like Obama, I have to keep this accountable, make it "transparent" ... so, I'll have the person I talk to most keep me in line. And also I have to define lazy. I'll define it by doing tasks to keep me active and out of my seat.
I will start to run everyday for at least 10 min, gradually increasing it till I get to 30 min.
This is how I will start, but I am open to suggestions :)
Any ideas to keep me active?
