Thank you for the thought.
:idea: I was considering giving up civility on OPP for Lent as we have so many who do not believe in God. :lol: :roll: :P

I could not imagine that of you! It is not your disposition.... Yes, too many claim there is no God, but they will be in for a shock when they die.

To change my disposition momentarily, I wish I would be able to look at those who disavow God and say, we told you so. :|

No you don't. Your heart is too full of love, you would pity them; and knowing you, you would probably ask God for his mercy. I know that at times, I wish I could put my hands on them and shake them....wake up, you only have this one opportunity to be right and do right. But, we are left with trying to show, try to tell, and always pray.
Hang in there. Keep a smile!
So, what did you give up for Lent? Passover is next month and I am looking forward to it. Nancy is all excited because she will be saying the blessing. She has pulled me aside so she can practice the Hebrew pronunciations. Poor child, she has problems but she is putting her heart into the effort.

Well, to get into the spirit of Lent, I have given up sex.

I don't have one. Ich bin verwitwet, deshalb ist es so einfach, "aufzugeben". :lol:

No you don't. Your heart is too full of love, you... (

I am giving up sugar snaps. I am addicted to them and have them four or five days a week.
Nancy has plenty of time to practice. It is the thought she wants to do the blessing and truly feels blessed, which will make it perfect.

Me too. But I didn't want that knowledge to become universally known. It might spoil my future, far, far, far future, 'conquests'. (I am allowed to dream, am I not?) :oops: :lol:
