And so we reach the end of Lent, the fortieth day. We are asked to evaluate our journey to this day, our experiences of generosity, to see if God is asking us to make a permanent Lent-type sacrifice in order to have a closer walk with God.
One of the most significant things for me has been to become more conscious of strangers I interact with in my day, people I meet in the stairwell, service representatives in store, etc, to make more of an effort to really see them, to smile, to make a personal comment. I think I already live a fairly generous lifestyle, and I want to continue on. It been a worthwhile journey.
