This cracked me up, but it’s also a great example of how we can get caught in our own mental gymnastics while trying to navigate strict spiritual practices.

The lengths you were willing to go to avoid the discomfort really shine a light on how easy it is to let pride or irritation take the wheel.

It’s relatable, sometimes we want to escape a challenge, and our brains cook up elaborate excuses to justify it.

The humor in your plan adds a layer of lightness to what’s ultimately a very human struggle with discipline and humility.
