Lent

If someone walks up to you and says "Lets choose each others lent sacrifices" what do you say? Me... as a non-Christian, non-religious, not carer about lent says "What.... wtf are you talking about", as I begin to turn away in the first stages of ignoring he repeats the question with further explanation. I'll choose what he gives up for lent, and he'll chose something for me. I'll take this moment to tell you that he is also not religious.... which btw had much to do with my initial confusion.

I take a minute to ponder and decided that it's time for him to get new shoes. The ones he has are in such disrepair that you'd be hard pressed to find a bum on the street to take a second look. The bottoms have holes, the tops are warn and tattered, and just the other day he was complaining about how his feet were all wet from water than had soaked into the bottom.

He has yet to get a new pair of shoes.....and he has yet to come up with my own lent give up...

Good idea with the lent swap there buddy....
