“Anywhere but here.  Anything but this.  Any life but mine.”  Our guide, Evagrius called this temptation acedia.  It's a general restlessness, boredom, and discontent with your life as it is.  It tempts you to disconnect at work and home, to fantasize about a life somewhere else with someone else, to retreat to mindless entertainment to dull the pain–or worse.  Its goal is abandonment.  Your only hope against this attack is Jesus–He’s the only one who makes all things new.
