“What is my life? What am I all about? Be able
to say, in twenty-five words or less, this is who I
am; this is what I do”
EASTER will be as early
as it gets this year.
I can
never remember the ancient
formula for deciding it, so I
looked it up again.
In 325 the
Council of Nicaea stated that
Easter shall be celebrated
on the first Sunday that
occurs after the full moon
that appears on or after the
spring equinox.
The equinox,
the first day of spring, is
March 21.
Therefore Easter
will always fall on a Sunday
between March 22 and April
25.
A March 23 date, such as
we have this year, is a oncea century event.
It won’t
happen again till 2160.
So
there you have it.
Forty Days
Though the date of Easter
varies, the season of Lent
which precedes it always lasts
for forty days.
So Lent begins
almost unnaturally early this
year on February 6.
The forty
days, of course, is based on
