Easter Sunday
A while agoI had lunch with a dear young friend, who I have loved dearly ever
since she was a baby. According to her, some of her desires have not witnessed
the dawn of fruition. And I insist that she has it all, only she does not know
it!!
The Universe always fulfills desires...In its own time and in its own way.
You may be waiting for a financial windfall, it may not be forth-coming from the
direction that you expect. You may be so engrossed in your conviction that it
will come only from that door, that you overlook another gateway opening.
Sometimes the gift is already there but you do not recognise it.
During the month of April we celebrate Jesus Christ's Ascension. He proved
to us that Life is stronger than Death.
Look at your life and re-acquaint yourself with your blessings Do some
Soul-searching, and 'ascend', this Easter Sunday.
Go for the diploma that you have always wanted to have.
Explore your buried talents.
Express your love and appreciation, to the one who has long enough been taken
for granted.
Experience the power of the 'Risen'

We don't give death serious thought unless we come face to face with it...The
process of dying, interestingly is woven into the fabric of life. There is a
continuous cycle of death and birth in the seasons...In our mind we experience
the constant birth and death of myriad thoughts and ideas that are here one
moment and have disappeared the next...Fear of death is largely linked to the
ego. It is what we are most attached to that we are afraid of losing...
Death is an abstraction we fear. Dying however is a daily reality that we can
learn to accept. The death and resurrection of Jesus is all about death and
dying. The celebration is meant to take away the 'sting of death'. The central
message of the Easter Season is that if the process of dying is integrated into
ones life, then we need not be afraid of death, when it comes. Death thus
becomes an event in life...
