Remembering Easter Sunday

Tomorrow, the faithful will celebrate Easter Sunday.

Easter Sunday in the modern and commercialized Philippines mean going on egg hunting and having Easter Sunday parties. Hey, no offense meant, this is a great family bonding activity after church obligations have been fulfilled.

Easter Sunday is so much more than just egg hunting.

For vacationers, this day means they go back to work the next day, dealing with bosses and clients, reading insurance blogs or whatever it is that they do to earn a living.

When I was young we used to go to the beach for Easter Sunday celebration where the pastor talks about the significance of Easter Sunday. We’d go egg hunting after the service, before taking a plunge in the cool waters of the almost uninhabited beach which by now I am sure is full of vacationers.

Sometimes the eggs can’t be eaten because these have been buried in sand and well, has been sandy all over 🙁

Sometimes one would get “lucky” and sit on a hidden egg. No need to go dig in the sand anymore, yipee!

I miss those times when things were simpler.

I gotta go to sleep now for we have an early morning church obligation. I hope the kids would be able wake up 🙂
