happy easter!

to slip into Christianity for a minute - my favorite part of the Easter story, the bit that always makes me cry, is that in the middle of everything He was doing at that time(great glorious resurrection, triumphant trip to heaven, hell in chaos, being so coated with the spirit that He was untouchable to mortals) Jesus stopped - 

just because she was crying.

It's one of the sweetest parts of the entire story for me.  For a long time the organized church has missed it but - Jesus has always had a soft spot for women and He was (and is still) moved by our joys and our tears. 

So whether you celebrate with bunnies and candy and eggs, church songs and bells, both, neither, or just a nice quiet day with what makes you happy, I hope everyone has a blessed and happy Easter today.
