Yesterday I realized that I had been writing on this blog almost continuously since early December when we went to Hawaii. It has been one of the most intense periods of writing since I started doing this seventeen years ago in 2008, for various reasons.
I woke up feeling like maybe I'd hit the wall for now in what I can express here and thought I should take a short break, at least until Easter, to devote the energy to prayer while it is still Lent. This is often how I do Lent, which is to start slow and lazy and increase it towards the end. With less than two weeks to go, this is time to increase my devotions. Without such devotions, the Paschal celebration is much less meaningful to us.
Humility--the old saying is that it is not about thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less. I think I've done all the self-reflection and self-examination I care to do for the moment. I don't regret anything I've written, or take any of it back. But I think I'll let God do the talking for a while, except for my prayers, which will be in part for you, dear reader.

Paschal mystery or Pascal triangle? That could be something to contemplate.
Smart one, you.
