Sit and Pray

I was not in a good mood today. My problems got ahead of me. Well, one particular problem got ahead of me.

And in this kind of days I'm thankful for my friends. For they are always there for me, saying the right words, reminding me of anything I've taken for granted, telling me that everything will turn out fine.

One thing did stick out though.
One of them told me to pray.

The words were so powerful that it got me silenced. I actually remembered the last time I prayed, really prayed. It was about a month ago. But the point is that I didn't pray as many as I should. All this time I've been counting on my strengths, trying to fight with all that is happening. I never got to pray and let it go. I never got to embrace it and thank God for it, how horrible it was.

So today, for the first time in a long time, I sit and pray.
