If ever there was a holiday that deserves to be commercialized, it's Halloween. We haven't taken it away from kids. We've just expanded it so that the kid in adults can enjoy it, too. |
Halloween is one day of breaking out of your shell, one day you can be completely expressive, where the world gives you license to dress up. |
Halloween is not only about putting on a costume, but it's about finding the imagination and costume within ourselves. |
Halloween is an opportunity to be really creative. |
I love the spirit of Halloween and the energy that comes with it. |
On Easter Day the veil between time and eternity thins to gossamer. |
I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. And whoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. |
Here is the amazing thing about Easter; the Resurrection Sunday for Christians is this, that Christ in the dying moments on the cross gives us the greatest illustration of forgiveness possible. |
O chime of sweet Saint Charity, Peal soon that Easter morn, When Christ for all shall risen be, And in all hearts new-born, That Pentecost when utterance clear, To all men shall be given, When all shall say My Brother here, And hear My Son in heaven. |
History will judge us on how we respond to the AIDS emergency in Africa... whether we stood around with watering cans and watched while a whole continent burst into flames... or not. |
