"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go; things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they're right. You believe lies, so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself ... and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."

During this time of year, Chaminade University of Honolulu recognizes the season of Lent.
For those of the Catholic faith, Lent is a season of fasting for 40 days and 40 nights. Fasting is an act of a sacrifice in peoples’ daily life, or something people like to do for personal improvement.
Some give up an addiction during this time, some set goals to challenge themselves. The Silversword asked several CUH folks, Catholic or not, who are participating in the Lenten season what they are giving up:
