"Anyone who has ever had the misfortune to drive me to an airport, meet
me at a train station, or share the trunk of a car with me on a road
trip can tell you one thing: I do not travel lightly. Whether a journey
is two days, two weeks or two months, my bulging bags and stuffed
suitcases defy the saying that 'you can't take it with you.' I do.
"Alas, however, there are those times when a clerk at an airport tells me
that my suitcase is too heavy and something has to go. There are also
the times when the simple laws of physics tell me that a suitcase cannot
be bigger than the luggage rack that will hold it. So, then, it is time
to leave something behind."
In a recent commentary, writer/Professor Lucia A. Silecchia
reflected on evaluating on burdens we carry - physical and other - as we live and pray our way through this Lenten season.
