Thank you for your words. I really like how you broke down the calendar times into your own terms (3rd paragraph). Thank you for your words.

I think I aprreciated this line the most: "Why then I ask myself, celebrate Lent, or any of the Church Liturgical Calendar? As I ponder that paradox, I have simply chosen to come to Lent in freedom, no strings attached, in beauty and simplicity." I had plans for observing Lent this year...it involved me sacrificing my time to intentionally sit in silence and contemplation...I have YET to 'go there'...The freedom and no strings attached is probably where I should have started after all!
