Monday of Holy Week

Written By Brian Suntken

Monday through Wednesday of Holy Week are traditionally the days for “spring house cleaning”. We put up freshly washed curtains, polished some silver in anticipation of the Easter festivities, wax the woodwork or turn the mattresses: anything that shares in and points up our spiritual new life. We own little silver or copper, but in our house it has become something of a treat to haul out the silver teaspoons and the copper kettle that need to shine and put them into use again for the feast of Easter. Polishing away the tarnish is graphic and rewarding.

It’s my sixtieth trip around the sun this year. I share some wisdom, some photography, some poetry and prayers for the journey ahead.
