Ashes in the Streets

Sara Miles has a great piece on Daily Episcopalian about ashes in the streets. Among other things she says, "Why would you say thank you when a stranger tells you that your child is going to die? Because it's the truth. People say thank you to that hard blessing because finally, despite all the lies of our culture, it means nothing is hidden, or pretend, or made-up anymore."
