what do i do on Easter holiday?
mmmmhhh...first of all, we have to remember that Easter holiday is not just eat chocolate and have a long weekend.
the real meaning of this date is celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus, who gave his life for the forgiveness of human being sin.
this date has the object of make us share a moment of reflexion and meditation.we have to reflex and think about what he did for us, death in the cross for the forgiveness of our sin and what we do for the fellow man, because the message that Jesus gave us is that we have to love one's neighbor.
well this year i did not do anything in special, I just ate a lot of chocolate and spent time with my family.
Do you know why we eat chocolate in these holiday? and why we said that the Easter rabbit bringing to us?.
well the two of them have a singular meaning and I'm going to share it with you
The Easter Eggs:
from the earliest times, the egg was a symbol of rebirth in most cultures. Eggs were often wrapped in gold leaf or, if you were a peasant, colored brightly by boiling them with the leaves or petals of certain flowers.
Today, children hunt colored eggs and place them in Easter baskets along with the modern version of real Easter eggs -- those made of plastic or chocolate candy.
The Easter Bunny
is a symbol originated with the pagan festival of Eastre. The goddess, Eastre, was worshipped by the Anglo-Saxons through her earthly symbol, the rabbit.
The Germans brought the symbol of the Easter rabbit to America. It was widely ignored by other Christians until shortly after the Civil War. In fact, Easter itself was not widely celebrated in America until after that time. (website: http://wilstar.com/holidays/easter.htm)
