Gap

Here is a gap. I know what it is for. It is to be filled with the recitation of the Qur’an, with remembrance of Allah. Instead I fill it with the habit of checking my emails every ten minutes, and with looking for something to watch on iPlayer, and with pointless gadget news, and with trying to remember what I used to do on the internet, back when it used to fill the gap. The fact that it bores me now is a good sign, I am sure. Here is a gap and now I know what it’s for.
