Any of the Christians on my f-list observing (celebrating) Lent? If so, what are you giving up/doing for it?

I don't usually, but I think it might be a good year to start. Not necessarily fasting, or even giving up something, but perhaps taking time to do something, to form a habit.

Thoughts?

One year I did lectio devina every morning before breakfast. That was quite nice. Might try that again this year. I think I still have the book.

Me, I'm preaching a lot! I know that's not what you were asking, but it's what's happening.

I'm repeating a Lenten fast from a few years ago, and giving up "unnecessary spending".

I'm also considering doing a "generous act" every day. Or possibly doing a daily (liturgical) prayer (difficult, given my current schedule, but I used to manage it, and I'd like to get back into a routine).
