Easter coincides with spring festivals in many countries.
It is a time that celebrates the awakening of nature after the wintry months. It is a time of rebirth and also a time to rejoice in the hope of resurrection.
This time is celebrated worldwide in different ways.
A couple of years ago, I had the good fortune to have Easter breakfast with some Dutch primary school children. Each of them had nicely packed their breakfast baskets with goodies. The party ended with an egg hunt.
Some traditions need to be passed on to the future generations so that they too can find reasons to rejoice and feel a sense of belonging.
