For some very bizzare reason I have decided to give up Facebook for Lent. For those (probably most) who see how much I'm on there, you'll understand how big this is!! Particularly as I was seriously into Farmville in a very big way!! My depression has been worse recently and part of the depression is the need to be 'doing' all the time and also obsessing about things. I don't do just sitting and watching TV or 'chilling out' and Facebook was part of that constant 'doing' and Farmville the 'obsessing'. Hopefully this will help me to relax a bit more, even if it's still doing things, it'll be jigsaws or sewing, which I don't get so obsessive about. When I asked someone if they had any ideas what I could do for Lent they suggested reading a particular book about prayer. The 'problem' I sometimes have with that is that it makes me think (something I also tend to avoid, particularly with the depression!), so I figured that you, the Wiblog world, and the internet world might help me out (if you don't mind!) (This, of course, assumes that people read this!!). I thought that if I come across things or questions I could share them here. Hopefully that will help me to engage / respond to the book as well as read it!
