A post today on the Madeleine L'Engle Facebook page quotes her:
"I am too eager for spring. Around Crosswicks the sere fields need their blanket of snow to prepare the ground for growing. In my heart I am too eager for Easter. But, like the winter fields, my heart needs the snows of Lent."
And today, Ash Wednesday, we woke up to several inches of snow on the ground after a week or two without any. How apropos!
A blessed and meaningful Lent to all my Christian friends (and to those who aren't but might enjoy 40 days of meditation and contemplation).
