At Lent I do not always abstain from something (some years I fast, and donate the un-used food money to charity). Most years I add a special spiritual practice. This year, as in most years, I am spending Lent reading and thinking about Doris Grumbach’s book “The Pressence of Absence; On Prayer and an Epiphany”. The book struggles very honestly with the struggle of feeling God’s pressence in your life, and not feeling God’s pressence in your life. The absence/pressence of God is an issue I struggle with on a regular basis. And each year Doris helps me to see something I didn’t the year before.

“I feel obese with the amount of data I’m consuming”

Exactly. I really like how you tied the two concepts together. Thanks as well for the shoutout. I am taking my Lenten dietary cues from one of Pollen’s collected proverbial sayings in the NYT Slow Food blog:

Eat foods in inverse to how much it’s lobby spends to push it. -Kirk Westphah

Foer makes his case for animals with eloquent simplicity and without passing judgment.

This short interview in December with Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic shows his gifts.
