Here is a link to an article by Marc Barnes (the guy from Bad Catholic blog). This guy has the pulse of humanity where we can choose rituals or death. So many times we choose death. Check out his article below.

This is so true in my life. I struggle to keep rituals and routines going in my life, and hence it becomes death instead of ritual. This means my relationships with my wife and family suffer, as well as my relationship with God. This is why I like Lent so much, as there is so much day to day, and weekly rituals that keeps me grounded. Sometimes after Lent, it is easy to get out of your routine and stray from God. Lately with all the summer time activities, I haven't made time to read the Bible and pray. Sometimes I wish Lent lasted all year.
