Today is Day One of Lent. Waking up this morning and not being able to check the statuses of all my friends was strange, yet exhilarating. It was a mind freeing experience of which I hadn’t felt in a while.
To be ‘socially’ unconnected from this device that feeds me information at the click of a button was nice. Instead of reading status updates and writing morning messages on peoples walls, I prayed. Prayed about my day, prayed for my family, and prayed for strength.
Throughout the day I found myself thinking about God more and more. I found myself in a state of awakening or enlightenment to how I have been and the things in my life I need to change. It was very odd.
More to come later…
