Report on my attempts to pray more often and more intentionally:

I've been doing it, but not as well as I had hoped.  I am trying hard at keeping on and getting better at it, rather than just sliding back into old habits.

I want to add some daily meditation to the picture.

Do you pray or meditate?  I would love it if you would share some of your experience about that?  How did you develop your practice, and how does it affect your life?
