I think Hashem has proven He doesn’t want the Mets to win LOL.
Moish, I struggle with organized prayer a lot. I find saying someone else’s words really does not convey anything. I say certain things as they are written and then ad lib most of my tefilot. Its much more meaningful when I do. Be careful of when you do it though because there are places during davening that you are not allowed to interupt. I am not an expert on it though – I usually say my tefilot seperate from organized ones. Its important to have an open communication with Hashem.
