The beginning of Lent is marked by Ash Wednesday and then the 40 days of struggle begins! Lent is filled with a roller coaster ride of emotion:

Day 1: Let’s do this!

Day 2: I don’t know if I can do this.

Day 5: I’m really not sure if I can do this!

 

Day 10: I’m already ¼ of the way done!

Day 15: Would it be awful if I quit now?

Day 20: Half way down!! Only 20 more days to go!

Day 25: 15 days is such a long time.

Day 30: Only 10 days!

Day 35: I’m almost done!

Day 39: One more day!

Day 40: Wow! I actually made it!
