I hope, dear reader, you will forgive me for not blasting bunnies and eggs and chocolates as I discuss why last weekend’s Easter holiday was so enjoyable. Part of the celebration of Jesus’ sacrifice, in my opinion, is to enjoy the peace and freedom it accomplished. Therefore, I believe that after we internalize the magnanimous gift of having our sin conquered and we have recalibrated our minds and hearts, it seems OK to enjoy some of the less critical aspects of the Easter weekend.
