Chocolate

I have been off chocolate since February 17th, 2010. My friend Liz is Catholic and has given up coffee and chocolate for Lent. I told her that I would do it with her even though I'm not Catholic. I don't drink coffee so that was easy but chocolate has been challenging. I do like to have good chocolate now and then so I look forward to next Sunday. Lent ends in seven days. I learned that I can live without it though. It's good to exercise self control and prove to yourself that your spirit is the master of your body.

I think you just hit it on the head for me. For the things that I have been really strict about, it makes me feel successful in a way that, yes, I am master over one thing in all the chaos of the rest of my life. Chocolate is a tough one, awesome!
