Today is Ash Wednesday. Ashes is what everything eventually will become. Did you ever return to your childhood home? Nothing is as you remembered. Stores are renamed. Movie theatres are gone. Your favorite drug store where there was a soda fountain is missing. Condominiums are everywhere.
Everything is changed or completely gone. Reminds me of Ash Wednesday, "You are dust and to dust you will return." Again, my mantra comes to mind, "All is passing, only God abiding."
This Lent I will work on my relationship with God and others, who are in His image.
