Easter

I attended Maundy Thursday service for the first time ever this year. Washing of the feet, sombre hymns, quiet readings, stripping of the altar and silent departure by candlelight. It brought home the point of the Jesus dying for our sins, and the commandment to respect each other.

And then Easter Sunday... colours, lights, banners, power-hymns. Celebration and smiles. And a balloon launch afterwards. Cool.

My thoughts on religion and church are: a) they are two separate things, b) they are different for each person, and c) a little bit is good prevention and a lot is a good cure, all depending on whatever ails you.

My thoughts on Easter are that we all need to be reminded that we can be forgiven, even forgiving ourselves... and we can all 'start over'. Each morning, each hour, each year. Review your situation and get on with things, embracing whatever changes you decide need to be made in your life.





If you're looking, I'm in a choir gown.





So for some of you, see you at the next blog post. For others, see you at church at Christmas.
