I fear too many will not even care, not wanting to be seen as ‘religious’ [as that might give people the idea you’re some far right wing religious nutcase.] The discrimination against Christians is world wide, many are killed in Africa, and by Muslims, those practitioners of the Religion of Peace with machetes(!) (Bloody Pieces is more like it)
Easter has to mean more then a day for store sales, or our faith is being distorted and diminished on purpose. Please, keep it ours and keep it precious or we will lose it, sure as taxes!

I need to go out and do some things before the super storm outbreak gets to my area.

The discrimination against Christians is world wide, many are killed in Africa, and by Muslims,

I know that's coming here one day, may God give us the strength to confront it.

When my children asked about ‘death’, I explained, “ Well, no one on earth knows exactally, but here is what I think it must be like kind of like for Believers.”

“Once upon a time, there was a caterpillar named Wiggles. He worked hard at wiggling around on the ground, and up bushes and trees. He and his brothers and sisters were very close and spent their days together, munching on twigs and leaves.

One day, his brothers and sisters found his empty suit. They sobbed and mourned, and, as they were carrying the empty caccoon up the hill to ‘caterpillar cemetary’, they wept, as they missed him, so much.

And, above them? Wiggles was FLYING! And, he looked down, saw his brothers and sisters, so very, very sad, and, he hollered to them, “Here I am! I am FREE! Can’t you see?”

And they kept marching up the hill to the caterpillar cemetary, not seeing ......yet.”

Beautiful opening, Aqua!

I can't stay today, but wanted to ping my short list with a link to an msnbc poll wanting us to give Obama a grade. We need to freep this big time! Currently 38% are giving him an "A" and 38% an "F"!

Click here and freep away....

Why it did not show up as a clickable link, I have no idea.

Try this: MSNBC Poll - Grade Obama

Pretty daffodil and great frame. I really enjoyed the poem that you posted. Thank you.

I was there once .... just driving through. Spent a night there and did a walking tour of some beautiful old homes.

I would love to go again and spend more time.
