Today is one of my most treasured days in the year. Ash Wednesday, this is the day those who follow receive ashes and are reminded that ashes we are and ashes we will become. This is the start of lent a very religious time for Christians. A service dedicated to asking for forgiveness and forgiving those who hurt or sinned against us. Now for my Blog I don't push religion and always say that this is a very diverse and wonderful world we live in. I have friends of all religious backgrounds.
One thing about this day is that it doesn't just relate to Christians, it reminds us that we are only human and not one is better than another. That we need to forgive each other and love each other. That we all came from ash and to ash we will become...
As the ashes are placed on my forehead I am reminded that we are all equal and being a single parent to forgive epically if we have anger towards our child's other parent which can happen. It is hard being divorced and sometimes we need to remember we are all loved and equal. Even though on a daily and weekly basis I try to live a good live and ask for forgiveness and attend Church this service is the start of a period that is very holy and sacred. To all reading this at the least I hope you take this day to know we are all equal and everyone is just human and we were all born of the Earth and the Earth we will return...
Love each other and always remember...
You are Never alone...
Love,
Christopher
