prayer
- Act of devotion, symptom of familiarity, a cry for help, an outpouring
of gratitude... prayer is intensely personal. It is shaped by what
we believe, who we are, the culture we grow up in, the religious
tradition we belong to etc. It is as simple as "dear god, bless
mummy and daddy..." and as esoteric as meditating on the breath
of life as a gentle breeze adds an extra sensory dimension to a
fiery sunset on a lonely beach. Or it isn't.
