Easter

We are at the end of Lent, which starts on Ash Wednesday and lasts about forty days, and ends the day before Easter. It is a solemn religious occurrence on the liturgical calendar of many Christian denominations. Fasting, prayer, self denial and atonement are all practiced during that period. While I consider myself a Christian at heart, I am not an advocate of all the pomp and circumstance that sometimes surrounds it. I believe there is no denying that a power far greater than any of us created the world and universe we temporarily reside in. All I have to do is witness my surroundings and observe a sunrise or sunset, which I do daily. I wish all of you a Happy Easter!
