He's alive! He's alive and I'm forgiven. Heaven's gates are opened wide!

It is also a year where Easter, Passover and Ramadan are simultaneous, also illustrating the deep links of these faiths.

"On Friday, Jewish people celebrate Passover to mark the exodus of Israelites from enslavement in Egypt.
On the same day, Christians observe Good Friday to commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus before celebrating Easter Sunday when he rose from the dead.
Over the weekend, Muslims will continue observing Ramadan, a month of prayers and fasting to memorialize the transmission of the Koran."

Those not of those traditions can still celebrate the earlier meanings of the rabbit and the egg from earlier times.

Happy Easter!

I just picked the last of my grapefruits to bring over to my family today.  No more citrus until the 2022 crop ripens
