Attentive

I’m in Australia. Driving on the left side of the road, I find I’m much more attentive than when I’m back home in the U.S. I’m more attentive to everything connected with driving: my mirrors, turn signal, position of the steering wheel (on the right), and, of course, other vehicles. Driving over here is serious business. Don’t get distracted or you might go left when you should go right.

Lent is a time for being attentive. Lent makes me much more attentive to all the things I’m thankful for: family, friends, relationships, having a great job. Love.
