okay so lent season has started. most of you know that i have grown up practicing lent pretty much my whole life. also many of you know that usually for lent i give up something. mainly it is a food item or items. but this year i decided to do something a little different. since i am on this journey to freedom and nothing but positive thoughts and words, thats what i want to do for lent.
i want to give up negative thoughts and words about myself and only allow myself to think positive thoughts about myself. also if i have anything to say about myself, it better be nothing but positive. not going to lie, but it is going to be hard and i already have had to catch myself a couple of times. its so natural for me to just say whatever about myself. i must break this.
they say it takes 30 days to form/break a habit. i am hoping for these next 40ish days i will do that. i also have told my team what i am doing and of course they think its awesome and are totally behind me 100%. they are to hold me accountable for my actions and i am to turn to them whenever i feel these thoughts come on and i need help. im really hoping this is going to change myself and hopefully my life.
i also want to give a shout our to margie because this was actually her idea for me and it was awesome!! love it
so i suppose i am asking you guys to please pray for me during this time of lent and also for my teammates, just because they rock!!
