jenn's commentary

i was doing SO good on the giving up laziness for lent!
and then i fell.
literally.
and really really hurt my ankle.
and it kind of all went downhill from there.
(figuratively)
so i got myself a replacement lent sacrifice. even more vague and unmeasurable than the last.
i suck at this!

fear to go down. to start. to try.
to fall, yes. but the falling wasn't as bad as the fear of it.

at first standing at the top wondering if i could even force myself to do it.
then actually trying and NOT dying!
and having fun!
the more i did it, the easier it was to just do it. not to hestiate and stress and worry, but to just ... go

and at the end of the day, i wished that i'd been less fearful at the beginning.
i waste so much time on fear.
i don't want to look back on my days and wish i'd started earlier.
i want to be brave.

in considering what to give up for lent, i came up with many and varied ideas. most of them, however, were exceedingly vague... indeterminate... immeasurable... so that was a bit of a challenge.

in the end, i decided to give up laziness. i know. sort of sounds vague, indeterminate, immeasurable... so i added some parameters to make it quantifiable and, therefore, sustainable

it's going to be hard; i'm very good at accomplishing nothing...
