Hello Easter 2020

Photo uploaded by my Canadian friend, Michael Henry
This year's Easter of staying home and social distancing is tough, isn't it? Fortunately it is the first serious disease for many of us that has stopped us in our tracks, a global pandemic with no viccine to protect us (it's at least 18 months away). Unlike earlier generations, we aren't used to enduring fear, suffering, and uncertainty over a long haul. And yet, we know we'll get through this trying time, don't we? Of course, we do. 
"Tomb, thou shall not hold Him longer; 
Death is strong, but Life is stronger;
Stronger than the dark, the light;
Stronger than the wrong, the right;
Faith and Hope triumphant say
Christ will rise on Easter Day."
~ An Easter Carol by Phillips Brooks (who wrote "O Little Town of Bethlehem")

Wash those praying hands often.😊


Stay vigilant and well, my lovelies. Happy Easter Everyone!🌷

    1. I love the photo, too … and the vivid blue eggs.

      We are interconnected and one human community. It ever there is a reminder, it is a pandemic. And if ever there is a day to celebrate hope and human perseverance, it is Easter Sunday. Have a very Happy Easter, Trish!
