Have you ever heard someone way younger than you reciting verses beyond the Falaq and Nas that you seem to be stuck at, or seen some other guy religiously performing all his prayers at the prescribed time and place, and you feel somewhat guilty that you could've been him?
I say don't despair... you're not alone. In fact, see your feeling of guilt as a sign of faith and be inspired. Don't you ever be too ashamed or feel too old to attempt to emulate him in effort. Guidance is God's, and it sometimes takes a process.
If you ask me, the act or deed that best expresses your devotion to God is not necessarily the one that appears to be so demanding to handle, but the one that is done with sincerity; one that is free from sham and hypocrisy, methinks!
