I was too distracted to pray today.
I wish I had.
I don't feel guilty that I didn't - I think that'd be more destructive than constructive.
I just think that my outlook on life today and my thought processes would have been different if I had.
It is so easy when one has committed to something to give up as soon as the pattern is broken. It's easier to do/not do something when we've already crossed the line (either way). I could easily make the choice to break Lent again tomorrow; but there is absolutely no reason to do so, or to believe that I have somehow failed because of one day.
I think today has just shown me how much daily prayer is doing for me and changing my priorities, and so I can almost see my day off as a positive thing, because it has shown me the difference when I do pray.
I shall try to find time and peace of mind enough for prayer again tomorrow.
