Dear Friends,
While ago, a dear colleague of mine presented me with a
purple bracelet that was used by her mother-in-law’s
congregation as a vehicle for giving up “complaining”
during Lent.
I’m not sure whether she gave it to me in the spirit of my
gratitude blog, or because she thought I was a whiner and
could use the exercise!

I’m grateful to be challenged because I strive on dare!
Thus, this year I shall observe Lent. After all, who really
knows which religion will prevail up there?! As I’m growing
older I feel the need to cover all my bases with Bruce Almighty!

Starting Wednesday, I will wear my bracelet. Every time I complain, I will switch it to my other wrist! (It is very possible to be grateful and complain at the same time!) I will take the challenge a step further by not gossipping or using sarcasm. I shall not do anything remotely soothing!
Have a striving day and long weekend everyone!
