It’s Easter this Sunday,
but to be honest,
all I have been able to think about
is the total eclipse of the sun.
So I sit here and reflect on the E words – easter and eclipse.
they are the markers of a cycle
that seems unrelated, but
they are about darkness and light.
they are about despair and hope,
they are about the triumph of light
over the temporary darkness which comes with the Eclipse.
Eclipses, albeit infrequent, come and go
and it is in the midst of the darkness
that we can prepare for its return.
in the midst of the death and the darkness
we prepare for the return of the light.
We die
just to be reborn.
We do this all the time,
our cells die and are regenerated.
parts of us die, only to come back transformed.
Eclipses are a time for change.
we so often underestimate the power
of what happens in the dark.
But it is our time in the darkness of the womb
that we prepare to be reborn
and walk in the light
Eclipses enable us to go through
and then with a quantum leap
move to a higher place in our journey.
It is not the e words themselves
which is so important.
It is about yet one more word
evolve,
because in the midst of all the e words
if we are not evolving,
then we are revolving.
so let us evolve
as we move through all the eclipses in our lives
the cycles of the Easter season
and the journey we call life.
