Into the lent-en season

This lent season.....seems pretty dry as compared to the other ones i've had in my life.There might be many reason to it....time....differences....and so so.I came across a poll voting which asked a question.....do you believe in this season or do you think its a waste of time?? My answer to this question.....is totally on the fact that this season has always brought many changes in my life....some for the good....and some not that worthwhile. But indeed, this season means a lot to the catholic faith.....i might not reach church every sunday.....but this season definitely brings thoughts to my mind.....makes me think.....and wonder....is this it? is this life? what have i done?
