As sad as it may sound, the first thing I do when I wake up is go to my computer to check my email, Google Wave, and Facebook. This morning I realized that I could not check facebook and, honestly, I was a little hurt and saddened, as pathetic as that may sound. Also, I checked my blog and saw that, for me, the video that I posted last night was not working, which was also disappointing. But then my day got better, because I turned on my Pandora and the first song that played was "Just For Now" by Imogean Heap - so today will be ok. I think that depriving myself of something for Lent, something that I constantly crave, will be good for me. I will probably accomplish the following sans facebook: more school work, being not as distracted, going to sleep earlier, etc. Yen changed my password for me, so I can't get on it at all (even though I may have already been tempted to click "I forgot my password" on the login page - but I didn't!) Yen and I are continuing our daily bible readings, which is something that I am enjoying so much. It is a great thing to break up my day and it is a very eye opening experience, because I have never read the Bible on a continually daily basis before. I am loving it so far.
Under the surface of what Lent represents is something bigger than ourselves - bigger than we can ever be, and that is what we need to remember. I will leave you with this quote for the day:
"A really great talent finds its happiness in execution."
