Lent – Solemn

Day43_Solemn

 

Here was another word that was hard to photograph.  Solemnity is not a visual thing.  It is a state of mind, a feeling of importance, an intentionality.

  • We mark the important milestones in our lives with solemn ceremonies.
  • We observe the cyclic markers in our seasons with solemn holidays and holy days.
  • We approach that which is divine with solemn symbols and icons.
