Easter

"Have you had more Good Fridays than Easter Sundays in your life?"


A benign question posed by the pastor at the very beginning of an Easter service. An overcrowded church. Music plays. A baby cries two rows back.

And inside me... joy and regret and love and pain and indescribable gratitude converge. And the tears that fell were so big that I could hear them splash onto my dress.

I wondered why those tears were coming down like rain. And you still haven't told me why, only that you were ok.
