Getting up again

I have been struggling with keeping my commitments in the latter part of this week. I haven't been keeping up with the offices. I skipped going to the gym yesterday. I've been very tired, and somewhat absentminded, and distant.

This, I think, serves to remind me that this is hard, but also that this is what I need to do. Looking back, the days when I was being faithful to the office, I felt better. But it's also draining, which means that I need to make sure I'm staying faithful to other things, like getting enough sleep, and listening to my body when it says "you need to rest."

This Sunday is Palm Sunday. I'll be serving as a sub-deacon. I'm excited, and a little bit scared, even though I've memorized the actions I'll be performing.

I also came across Psalm 22 by accident. Crushing.
