One of the reasons Advent is my preference to Lent is the consuming joy felt.
Lent being more a cumbersome, somber state of affairs.
Turned inward,
distant from the world around
focus heavily amongst the spiritual realm.
Balance not a strong suit
often confused
misunderstood
finding the "grey" area
not the issue at all ...
Quite contrary
that is indeed
residency
majorly.
Often voiced;
old soul, wrong place in time,
hard to relate.
Stemming way back,
spiritual side preference
as opposed to this earthly nonsense.
One who comforts immensely knowing--
"Thy kingdom come, Your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven"
As this Lenten season progresses
continue observing
taken up;
wake-up,
did deep wilderness walking
calling ...
Mindful after three days
Christ risen from the dead
walked among the living again--
Still teaching.
Working.
Walking.
Via our
hearts, hands and feet...
