Lenten Activities: Fast from Comparing Yourself to Others

Are you looking for something challenging to do during Lent? Try to fast from comparing yourself to others. When we become more accepting of our own gifts and talents and less envious of what others can do, we can live in a new freedom.

Here are some places you might find yourself especially vulnerable to comparing yourself to others:

• in the classroom
• at work
• on the playing file
• social media
• at home with siblings
