As I was enjoying my morning cup of java I began to reflect on the meaning of Easter. I have to admit I am not one for the rules of the church but I do consider myself religious. I do believe in a higher power and I believe in the spirit of what that belief instills in the heart. I'm certain everyone has their own meaning of Easter but since this is my blog I will share the feeling from my heart! lolI like to keep things simple so when thinking about what this weekend represents for me it is about rebirth, coming alive , love, forgiveness, sharing and compassion. So the story goes, in the end Jesus sacrificed his own life to save others. He didn't think twice about it..it was his purpose.
I believe if you keep this thought in your heart then you embrace the meaning of Easter and it is carried throughout the year. What a beautiful feeling to have and to treat others with. It is a reminder that we are human and we all have our quirks but each of us is wonderful in our own way . We all have the opportunity and strength to make changes, embrace changes and enjoy change. Most of all ...once you love, forgive, and have compassion for yourself ...it is easy to share and extend all those magic qualities to others!
What a perfect season to celebrate Easter..a season where everything comes alive after the harshness of winter..a reminder to us all to enjoy new beginnings, and to come ALIVE and enjoy all the colour in life! Each year we are given the opportunity to see , learn and embrace this message until one year you truly "get it"!
Whatever your meaning of Easter is to you...may you enjoy time with family, friends and sneak in a little chocolate too....that is always fun!!!
