Easter the Reason

Once again another holiday to spend with family and friends
We need to remember that we were given this opportunity because of the crucifixion and
the resurrection of Jesus
Too often we forget the reason for the season and take everything for granted and it is 
just another holiday
We all have had losses and should remember those people who are no longer part of us
We were blessed to have them for a short time and our lost loved ones made us richer
for having them in our lives.
We do go on with our lives but the memories will always be a part of us and them and we
can never regret what was an important part of who we are now.
May this Easter be a time for renewal of our love for each other and a time to be thankful
for what we have
Our families and friends are a blessing
Hug them all and wish each one a Happy Easter.
