Garden of my soul

garden of earthy delights how dim you are in the translucent rays of light springing forth, from the depths of the soul, shinning upon the garden which is nourished in love and sorrow. Into the depths of darkness, of nothingness, of void...springs forth the warmth and tenderness of rays of translucent light engulfing the soul, freeing it once again.

During this Lenten season , one begins to ask themselves.. what is this really about. Is it only about making sacrifices or force some restrictions upon ourselves. Which in the end most of us will fail at. Or is it the inner reflection.. closeness, acceptance. and the value of love we offer ? Perhaps the inner reflection of ourselves during lent is best done ,with humility and simplicity. And the quality of the love we put in all things

A few years back I ran across a poem.. don't remember it all but what i do remember has always stuck with me..

Love
survives
death and
transcendence
yet that
which I was
and that
which I am
and that
which I will become

    This is a wonderful moment. As I read this, it is nearly Ash Wednesday, 2007.

    In my mind, Lent represents the time of preparation for miracles to take place: miracles of change, of sacrifice, and redemption.

    It is also a time of hope.

    Just like your name.

    Love,

    Marge
