I've been in a "dry" spell lately. Time to get out of it. The following by St. Thomas Aquinas helps:

It is better to limp along the way than stride along off the way. For a man who limps along the way, even if he only makes slow progress, comes to the end of the way; but one who is off the way, the more quickly he runs, the further away is he from his goal. . . . Therefore hold fast to Christ if you wish to be safe. You will not be able to go astray, because he is the way. . . . For he says: "I have come that they may have life, and have it more abundantly."
