Life is just too good right now.
I have a beautiful baby who has just started to smile at me. I am starting to feel like myself again, and today my favorite fleece jacket fits me for the first time. The snow is melting here, and with it is dissipating the oppressive gloom that every Minnesota March brings. The small sacrifice I chose for Lent turned around and blessed me immediately with abundance.
I can't seem to make myself stay in the desert.
Seriously. This is a problem (!?)
I am probably not trying hard enough. This doesn't have the feel of the sort of spiritual richness that one gets from a "good" Lent, so much as it feels like "not Lent at all." Hm.
