[quote=Anonymous]I'm an atheist who usually makes sacrifices for Lent. It's definitely not because I secretly believe in some higher power. I just think the concept of making self-sacrifice periodically is a good practice to make me better appreciate what I have in life. Sort of like a periodic fast. There's no particular reason I do it at Lent season -- probably because Lent's just when I started thinking about this idea 15-20 years ago when I first started doing this. I tried following basic Ramadan rules a couple times, for the same reason, but that's really hard. I usually give up booze or various food groups, but in years when I'm feeling motivated, I vow to do affirmative things like exercise or do work for causes I support.[/quote]
