Christmas and Easter are the two "big ones" when it comes to Christian celebrations and yet...no one really cares about Easter, though from my rememberings of a religious education it is actually the more important one. Even in a secular way, Easter gets overlooked, although of course there are lots of chocolate eggs and such [I always got toys because I didn't like chocolate when I was little - one year we were in Niagara Falls and I got a Finders Keyper and it was totally the best]. Both me and my Dad did not like Easter and found it to be completely depressing - it was springtime and you had many days off school, but then...you had to spend all of your time inside a dark church and not seeing your friends at all. We often went away to get away from this...
But I digress [as I do] - this year I decided to copy some Christmas traditions for Easter and tonight I wrote out Easter cards. I mean, I don't really celebrate xmas either [in a religious way], but I still send cards. So, why not for Easter [which I also don't celebrate beyond making myself sick on Easter Cream Eggs]? I am sending out half a dozen cards, which is like 80% less than my xmas card mail-outs, but the cards come in packs of six. Besides, this winter has been long and depressing [just me? okay] and I figure that people like to get mail. I know I do.
