i think prayer is basically talking to yourself in a reasonable tone in complete sentences about things that are most important to you. i know i spend most of the day with my thoughts in rapidfire images and half formed snippets of words that are relating what i’m sensing and trying to categorize and respond. hardly ever, if at all, in reasonable full rational sentences. i think you don’t have to believe in god to pray, and get the same benefits from it as people who do.
