I also wish everyone here a Happy Easter. :smile:

BTW for those who not celebrate Easter in the Church (like me :wink:) it is nevertheless a nice and special holiday: The children have Easter school holidays and have to look for their Easter presents. And the adults have - at least in Germany - two extra days off (Friday and Monday, and the shops are closed on these days including sunday). :smile: :go:

So, many families plan a short trip somewhere or just go outside (the weather here seems to become very nice). And I hope my children will see a rabbit somewhere (the chances are quite well for that). If so, I will tell them that that was the Easter Bunny... :biggrin:

I apologize if you took offence to my post. I was only trying to be informative.

Happy Easter, and God Bless.

BTW do you know the "Easter Walk" from Goethe's "Faust"?
From the ice they are freed, the stream and brook,
By the Spring's enlivening, lovely look;
The valley's green with joys of hope;
The Winter old and weak ascends
Back to the rugged mountain slope.

From there, as he flees, he downward sends
An impotent shower of icy hail
Streaking over the verdant vale.
Ah! but the Sun will suffer no white,

Growth and formation stir everywhere,
'Twould fain with colours make all things bright,

Though in the landscape are no blossoms fair.
Instead it takes gay-decked humanity.

Now turn around and from this height,
Looking backward, townward see.

Forth from the cave-like, gloomy gate
Crowds a motley and swarming array.

Everyone suns himself gladly today.
The Risen Lord they celebrate,

For they themselves have now arisen
From lowly houses' mustiness,
From handicraft's and factory's prison,
From the roof and gables that oppress,

From the bystreets' crushing narrowness,
From the churches' venerable night,
They are all brought out into light.
See, only see, how quickly the masses
Scatter through gardens and fields remote;
How down and across the river passes
So many a merry pleasure-boat.

And over-laden, almost sinking,
The last full wherry moves away.
From yonder hill's far pathways blinking,
Flash to us colours of garments gay.

Hark! Sounds of village joy arise;
Here is the people's paradise,

Contented, great and small shout joyfully:
“Here I am Man, here dare it to be!”

And on that note a new thread has been opened in the DMZ with the religious discussion moved there!

And now Happy Easter to all!
