I know many people that will be giving things up for lent. I was baptised Catholic, but more of a spiritualist then anything else.
I see it as a good time to be able to give something up too, why not. It may not be for the same reasons, but it's a great time to try something new.
I recently learned that alcohol is a huge problem in my family, and when my older relatives would give it up for lent, they'd turn into a completely different person. I figure I'll try that, after all, I like change, and if it's a positive one, what the heck.
