Recently, with this pandemic, celebrating Easter seemed to have slipped my mind and not be a priority on my radar. With that being said I think we need something normal in our lives, something to celebrate. I know we can not be with family and friends during this time, not even to attend church service, but we can find ways to acknowledge this holiday. Easter is about the renewal of hope and faith as we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. Right now more than ever we need this sense of light after darkness. Hope is about patience; understanding and having faith in things we do not quite grasp. Hope is about a love for someone or something, and there is so much love we have to give to those working in hospitals, grocery stores, family, friends, neighbors, strangers on the news, etc. So although Easter may not be of a concern to you at the moment nor is Easter decor, I encourage you to give it at least a thought for what the meaning behind this holiday represents. There will come a day when this is all over and we did it together with hope, faith, strength, and love.

I think we do have to try and bring some normal things into our lives at this time. I too brought out my Easter decorations today and I had mixed emotions in doing so, happy to see the items again but sad that I won’t be able to celebrate with my family. Not to mention that an important anniversary is coming up as well. But we will have to make the best of it and carry on and stay strong for our families as this will pass and we are learning very important lessons while quarantining.
Well said Brenda! I think part of moving forward is doing what we normally would with what we can do. I am glad to hear you brought out your Easter decor- I hope you have a wonderful Easter and are able to at least FaceTime with your family. Stay safe and healthy! xo
