Ash Wednesday

6 March 2019 | General Interest

 

 

... the echo of the Lent-stained ashes

speaks the truth of my humanity:

the humbleness of my beginning,

the simplicity of my departure.

A few wise words

echoing through Ash Wednesday

urge me to deeper things:

renewed dedication, 

constant compassion and mindful awareness.
