Inktober 2019: Ash

The Inktober theme for this post is ash. I immediately thought of Ash Wednesday. Ash Wednesday is the Beginning of Lent and 40 days before Easter. It is a time for reflection and preparation. All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return. Ecclesiastes 3:20 NIV
