Resurrection requires dying, letting go. But it also requires the risk of reaching out for new life, grabbing your loved ones and striking out for freedom, with no assurance of what lies ahead. Those who experienced the visions of Jesus after his death Knew such tension. Nature is flinging color on her gray canvas. The trees are singing.
Flowers raise their faces to the sun and dance for the joy of growth.
Easter is really about us. Nature will blossom whether we do or not. We will blossom only if we allow the old to die, And risk the new unknown life.
