There is something very different about Easter since Daniel
died.
Perhaps the fact that his memorial
service was a “celebration of the resurrection” left an indelible mark on my
soul and I am more sensitized than ever to what we are really celebrating when
Easter rolls around – as crazy as it may sound, losing Daniel brought a whole
new meaning and yearning for literal resurrection into my life experience.
This is not simply a nice, springtime holiday
with candy, bunnies, and sentimental scripture readings about Jesus rising from
the grave.
It is a very personal hope
and faith that it is all indeed true and that Daniel has already been resurrected
and I will be able to join him one day as well.
