I often find myself longing for the days when I kept a regular blog. It felt like a time in my life when I paid attention to my own life, memorialized the small but important things. As my husband said, I seemed more contemplative and intentional about my life "in those days."
Today Lent begins. Lent, a time for reflection, a time of preparation and tidying up the physical and metaphorical clutter in one's life. A time to pay attention to life, to sacrifice, to think and contemplate. And that is why this year, I have chosen to take up the discipline of writing again, to actively listen and reflect on lessons I can learn from my own life daily.
And so the journey begins, with a bouquet of roses from my Valentine to set me on my way.
