these past few days have been so easy for me to not eat any cookies, and get into any arguements. ive had a positive attitude with almost everything i did this whole week, and i hope for it to stay that way for now on.  I feel like God has given me the strength to do this also! My friends and family were a huge help this whole week, and i couldent be more thankfull. I learned alot from this, and im so happy. Yes, i got tempted. I made mistakes, but also learned from them. This was a great expierence, I have definetly made more room for God in my life also. I feel like im so closer to him, and hes given me the ability to really have faith in myself. I learned to also focus more on other people, not so much myself, and especially God. I really hope to continue through lent. Only because i learned so much, and i like the person ive become because im now very positive, and so forgiving. Not eatting cookies is going to be very hard though. Im going to try my best and hope for the best of things!

today it was not hard to stay away from cookies atall. I got so use to it to where i dont even get tempted anymore. My friends and family did help me alot, and stopped me whenever i would even go near them... It was also not hard for me to be forgiving today.. I realized more and more everyday this week, that its so important to be forgiving, so i tried really hard to keep a positive attitude with everything.

Today i wasnt tempted atall. I knew what my mistake was yesterday, so i knew not to do it again today. i also have not gotten mad at anyone today for any reason, and i tried to keep everything as positive, as possible. I hope tomorrow and Sunday go as good as today did.

Today, i accidentally had a cookie.. It wasnt my fault though! In dare our wonderful janitor, miguel, offered my class some cookies.. it was like second period and i was still half asleep so i forgot about how i couldent eat them.. I realized after i took my first bite.. I allready had some of it so i kind of had to finish.. If i didnt forget i positively would not have gotten any! Anyways, me and my mom havent fought today, and i had a positive attitude, all day! Im hoping this is how the rest of the week will be, and i wont eat any more cookies either!

Today wasnt too hard to stay away from cookies.. I guess im getting use to it because i dont even mind people eatting them around me anymore. Yeah i get very hungry and want them, but i use to be so tempted but not so much anymore! No one tempted me today either really, so that was good.

I didnt do a good job with fasting on getting mad to easily, and feasting on being forgiving. My mom was really bothering me so we got into a fight.. i tried to avoid it but it was pretty much impossible.. Hopefully things will be better later, but i hope this doesnt happen anymore!

Today, it was especially hard to not eat any cookies because my mom bought Mrs. Fields cookies which wasnt helping... -___- Even though she didnt help me very much i still didnt eat any! I also had some trouble with fasting on getting mad, because i was mad my mom bought so many cookies when she knew i couldent eat any.. 

Anytime i might forget about fasting a feasting, my friends are always there to remind me. I think this is a great way for me to realize how hard it is to give up certain things, and be more Jesus like.

Today i didnt find it hard to eat any cookies, and i definitely did not get mad at anyone for any reason today. I found buying a diffrent snack helpful, and staying away from people who have cookies.. I didnt get any help from my family or friends today, because i allready know i  shouldent be having cookies.. All my friends eatting them around me really got me tempted though..Im even tempted now to have some, but i wont! Hopefully tomorrow i wont be tempted at all.

Im going to fast on cookies for one week. Im not going to eat them in school, or at home. I think it will be kind of difficult, because im use to eatting them. Hopefully my friends will help me stop if they see me going to buy some..Im hoping to accomplish not being tempted to eat them. I think i could do this, even though it will be very hard. Im also going to fast on holding grudges, and not being forgiven, and i will feast on being forgiving. I think this will be very difficult for me because im use to staying mad at someone for whatever they have done to me. Its good that im trying this because i cant stay mad at someone for no reason. Everyone should be forgiving, and i need to work on that. Im hoping to accomplish obviously me being more forgiving for now on. I chose these two things to fast and feast on because i should change the fact that i sometimes hold grudges.
