It’s always a weird day, Easter was when my family found out I had fully left the church. I remember I just said I wasn’t going that day and my mother had a meltdown, saying there was no point in celebrating if I didn’t go to church. She cancelled the family dinner and all the activities for the whole family because she found out I didn’t go.
20 years later we’re better but I still remember that, I’m willing to admit that her cancelling a holiday because of me was traumatic for me, Easter used to fill me with dread.
Now I eyeroll at every big public he is risen post and continue on with my day. Today coffee, a good pastry shop, then enjoying a nice spring day.
