Happy Easter

Happy Easter to our readers who celebrate this auspicious occasion with special prayers and family gatherings and though there are some reservations about security, life must go on and celebrations take place, especially if the day is as significant as this. Easter is somewhat like Eidul Fitr, because after forty days of Lent in which believers fast, or give up eating or drinking something they like, at sundown on Easter Saturday this fasting comes to an end.

May your day be filled with happiness; peace; sunshine and the joy of spring with its new beginnings that give the message that no matter the odds, life goes on and we must never lose hope.
