I was having a conversation with one of my friends, and we were talking about some of the things we wanted to do, one of which, for me, was watch a sunrise. It is one of those targets that is achievable with just a small amount of effort. So I decided to do it, I have a week off from uni, nothing to get up for, take the opportunity whilst I can, and go watch the sunrise...on my own...ok not such a great plan. So I ask Ben and Sarah if they were interested, and surprisingly they were :). A plan was formed!! SO this morning, at 5:30, having gone to bed at 3:30...woops, I got up. We left at around 6:30 to head to the sea front, being the best place to watch. And it was worth it, even if I'm now very tired, and will probably sleep for a week. It was nice to spend some time with friends, even if it was a little chilly, and watch the sun as it climed up the sky, spreading light and warmth to the world!
Lent started today, and instead of giving up something, it was chocolate last year, remember? That was hard! I've decided to take something up, reading the Bible everyday, because, I will admit, that isn't my strong point. I have three different sources so hopefully I can keep it up. I also hope that putting it on here will alert people to it, and that you will help encourage me, guide me etc, into something that I hope to continue for more that the 40 days of lent. Because last year, after lent I started eating chocolate again, this year I want to keep it up.
I think I've rambled on for long enough. Just to warn you I haven't re-read this so who knows what I've put!!
And thanks to the grammar police. :P
