happy easter

this may be my new favorite holiday.
holy day.
the day that jesus proved his conquering of death.
the day that the tomb opened.
the day where the rallying cry the began with
crucify him!
ends with
HE IS RISEN!
He is risen indeed.

and i think that i understand more and more
of what it means to return to life
to go from unfeeling
dead
numb
buried
hidden
put aside
to being
ALIVE

alive.

the celebration of life unbeatable
unquenchable
neverending
possible for all
free

and i celebrate.
i am
free
i am
alive
i am
revived.

thanks be to god
for new life.

even life after
divorce
life.
real.
life.
blessed
life
and i'm so giddily thankful.


blessings.
