20+ Lent Memes You Don't Have to Give Up

Once upon a time, I thought Lent was just New Year's for people who didn't have the best January. If you don't have the dryest January, you can try again for February, March, and April without issue! And heck, by then, you'll be almost halfway through the year, so you might as well keep going! That was before I learned more about this swanky religion called Catholicism, and boy, did I learn. Lent is a period of penance instead of a period of self-improvement. You give something up for Lent, not intending to never do it again in your life but to prove to God that you have some self-control within you. If you can't stop eating ice cream for God, who can you do it for? If you're giving something up for Lent and aren't looking forward to abstaining from meat today, these Lent memes might help fill you up.
