I heard a comment on the radio that intrigued me. The DJ was talking about the long weekend that was coming up and how it wasn’t just another long weekend. This was a very special long weekend because of what it represented. This is getting interesting, I thought.

Then he added, “This holiday weekend is all about. . .” I waited with bated breath. Yes? I thought, say it, and tell us what the holiday weekend is all about.


And then he said on the radio in front of God and everyone, “This holiday weekend is all about being together with family and having special meals.”

Boy, did I feel silly; I thought Easter was all about Christ’s death and resurrection. What was I thinking?

The reality is that for most people, Easter and Good Friday are simply holidays, not Holy Days.

If I were King of the World, people would only be allowed to celebrate the holidays if they took the time to observe the Holy Days.

If they want to take the day off work, they will have to get a note from their pastor or priest saying they actually took part in Easter and Good Friday services. It works for me.


Have a great week, and remember: To see what is really possible, you will have to attempt the impossible.
