Who could have imagined last year that we’d still be wearing masks and physically distancing at this time?

It’s easy to understand the reactions of people who feel robbed of time and events, lonely because of isolation, financially strapped due to loss of income.  We know of a family of five who have survived well only because of separate rooms and a robust internet for each device being used.

Hope, like Spring, is the air with now-familiar names such as Moderna, Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson.  Memes of masks have been replaced by pics of vaccine cards.

In a sense, all of these last 12+ months have felt like a somber, sterile Lent and now there is light at the tunnel’s end.  Easter might not yet boast of packed churches and proud choirs, but normalcy inches toward us with every age group allowed to be jabbed.

Isn’t that a funny concept which, with each flu season, we can easily take for granted?  To be healthy, we must be jabbed.  We get protected from…because what is to be feared OUT THERE is now inside, telling our body how to fight off the potential threat from outside.

Imagine if that were true for positive thinking and proactive living?  The Good News is that it is!  This Easter, no matter what your religion or spirituality, could you embrace the idea that once you’ve been INNOCULATED with the knowledge of your original goodness and authentic grace, nothing and no one—no personal issue or problematic relationship—can sicken you anymore. 

We’re not saying things won’t bug you ever again or you that you’ll never have to re-assess the way you think or say or do what you do; but what you can be confident about is that your inner alignment is true and trustworthy.  With the Risen One,  fears and falsehoods have been crucified between yesterday’s regrets and tomorrow’s torments; in a sense, as St. Francis has it:  you have died to your old self in order to be born to eternal life.

Happy Easter.  Amidst the eggs and chocolate bunnies, the meal and music… we wish you and those you love health, joy and much love.
