Hi, tomorrow (it's Wed in my place) is the beginning of Lent. I'm a Christian protestant and I noticed that although our church observe this season (Ash Wed & Holy Week) but we are not as devoted as the Roman Catholics. I would like to ask how do you prepare for it? And what do you do during this season? Me? I wear skirts (or whole dresses) and I cover my hair :)

As you said, it depends on the religion of a person. Some might do fasting and abstinence too. Some may go to pilgrimage

In my country there are many people that tlk about being Catholics yet they only eat huge amounts of seafood and fish during Ash Wednesday and the Holy week. No lent here.

I don't usually do much for Lent. I think it's a very good idea, but my church has never emphasized this very much. I might think about it this year.
