Happy Easter -- May We Remember the True Meaning..
Written by Awkward Situations on Sunday, April 08, 2007Happy Easter everyone! I hope your having a stellar Easter afternoon!
I think it's times like these that we should relize the true meaning of the holiday, no it's not about bunnies, or chocolate or even a basket of candy or those favored* easter egg hunts. No it's about the glorious rising (risen) of my (and I hope yours too) personal savior, Jesus Christ. It's fun to celebrate holidays with things like Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny, true, but we should never forget the true meaning. Even if your not a christian or a believer in Christ or God, Easter represents hope for us all.
The Pope made his speech and highlighted the "end of suffering for us all". It's true, the world is suffering and we need to fix the problems at hand. I feel that this holiday is not only one of the most single greatest events in Mankind's history (if not the most, besides the birth of Jesus ie: Christmas) but a message. A message of hope, love and peace for all of us, not just me, but you, and that man on the street corner with a single cardboard box and no food, for that lady in Africa living in a makeshift metal piece(s) house, or that jewish man being persecuted for his faith and his life. We must understand that Jesus loves us one and all, no matter what race, ethiticity, faith or otherwise.
I hope you all have an awesome Easter evening and a great new year of hope, dreams, and love.
God Bless you one and all!
