i got this answer from http://www.gotquestions.org/Ash-Wednesday.html
"Ash Wednesday is the day Lent begins. It occurs forty days before Good Friday. The “official” name of Ash Wednesday is “the Day of Ashes.” The reason the day became known as Ash Wednesday is that it is forty days before Good Friday, which will always be a Wednesday."
hm, so this is the explanation.... :P
wel, why forty?
as we know, forty is a significant number in the Bible. :)
ayun ayunh. :P
