Funnily enough, this is something that has been on my mind for the past
few weeks. What i felt (and still feel) is the difference in prayer when
within a group (for example, at a service) and when alone.

When in the group, the prayer feels... 'alive' is the way i can best
explain. When on my own the prayer feels muddled and confused... very
similar to my mental state...
