Lent Update

[vdansk]

Well, I had my first lapse last night; I stayed up way past my bedtime playing with the computer, which counts as self-destructive behavior. Still, the lapse reminds me of how, essentially, I've been doing well with this spiritual exercise. Certainly I am living more mindfully. I haven't fought with anyone in the whole--what, thirteen days?--haven't used anything from alcohol to chocolate as a crutch, haven't disrespected my body, mind or soul. In an ideal world, this would be "normal", but for me it's an accomplishment. ;>
