A holiday, a holy day, though no holier than thou. With the spark of God living inside of you, there can be no day on the calendar that surpasses your importance. Don't count the days, make all the days count. May you be blessed with the gift of time for celebration, reflection, and love.
Count on it. There's someone you know who would like you to share the Daily Blessing.

The Story of Easter & Esther

How did Easter get it's name and who is Esther? 

Eostre is the goddess of dawn and new beginnings. Her name is similar to the word for the Christian Easter, because that holiday took its name from the ancient pagan goddess of spring and rebirth.

And Esther...was a Jewish queen whose story of courage in ancient Persia was celebrated this week in the festival of Purim.
