Indifference

It's hard to believe but we are more than halfway through the Lenten season. 

I wrote when Lent started that my goal was to learn to let go of outcomes. While there are aspects of my life I can control, like my reactions, I can't control the actions of others. And while there are many goals I would like to accomplish in my life, what I'd really like to be doing is making the biggest difference I can. And to do do that, I need to be open to possibilities.

I obviously didn't know that my mom would die in the middle of Lent. throwing a curve ball into my life. At first I felt annoyed that I my life was being thrown off its course because I would have to grieve. But as the days went by, I began to remember how important faith was to her and if I continued on my spiritual journey, that would make her happy.
