Day 1. Ash Wednesday.

On this day we examine what we lost in the fire. We wear that loss on our foreheads for all to see. We look for that loss on others as well. From ashes to ashes, dust to dust. On this day, we say also goodbye and lament the things we no longer need, the things that weigh us down, the things that make us less human.
