Bravo to Br. Charles ^[1]! He has decided to delete his Plurk and Twitter accounts ^[2]. I give him great credit for quickly recognizing that these technologies were not conducive to his prayer life and walk with God.

When I first started this blog, I was concerned that it could negatively impact my spiritual life. I kept close watch on myself: Was I neglecting my prayer life to keep up the blog? Was my activity on my blog and on the internet in general creeping into my interior life? These are questions we must all ask ourselves regularly.

I still keep a close watch on my attitude, and Br. Charles’ actions serve as a great reminder to all of us of the priority of the interior life over any apostolic work we might engage in.
