And what does Easter mean to you? I'm not Christian, so I only celebrate the candy. We don't do anything for Easter. If Easter means so much to you, with the new outfits and meals and family and maybe even church, maybe you should consider how Jesus would have looked at your self pity. Like, hey, I've died and risen or whatever, and you're whining about what? You're full of envy? Isn't that a sin or something? You're lacking gratitude for what you have? That doesn't seem so good either.

But I'm not Christian, so maybe I don't understand Easter or the Jesus thing and how perhaps they may be connected.

Do you get this overwrought on other holidays? April 28 is Arbor Day. Will you be okay? Stay off of Facebook. Plant a tree!

NP LOL. Made my morning.

My brother is mentally ill and had a freakout in the morning where he left my parents a note that made my mom worried and he sent his fiancé mean texts and he disappeared for awhile. He ended up showing up for dinner.

My dad insulted my aunt and she texted afterward that he really hurt her feelings.

Yay holidays.

So, it's just you and DH? You should have flown to see your parents. No excuses next year, make it happen.

Op you need Meds. Yesterday was a beautiful day. We had delicious McDonald's pancakes, played in water outside, and I used a really strong chemical to strip paint. Carry out for dinner again because kitchen is not in working order.

Wow harsh. Because someone has a crappy day does not mean someone need meds, this is what is wrong with our society today.

We took a beautiful picture which we did post on instagram and facebook BUT all three of my kids fought like cats and dogs, I wasn't talking to my husband basically the entire day because of something stupid him mom said that hurt my feelings and he could not bring himself to admit she was way wrong. She insisted we go to their super stuffy club where my kids always feel like they cant say a word and it was such a case of putting on an act, as one great big happy family...not.

I felt sad with no one from my own family being in town and basically felt kind of defeated though from the looks of it we had it all going on. Don't be fooled, all is not what it seems. Still not talking to him and there has been a lot of that in the last few years. Holidays are so overrated.

Same here, it might have looked like an amazing perfect day with a perfect looking family but behind the scenes it was anything but. A picture is what you want it to be, not any more.

I have never really enjoyed holidays and family get togethers, they just never seem to pan out like the movies.

Ugh. This is why Christians are unbearable. The refusal to believe anyone else has a valid belief if it differs from theirs. Wish they'd open their minds or close their mouths.

Oh please, DCUM is full of people pushing their judgement and opinions on others. It is equally unbearable that you have to defend your choice and argue back. It only means that you aren't comfortable with your choice otherwise you wouldn't care so much.

As a non-Christian, Easter is always a lonely day. As is Christmas.

us Christians are praying for you

Save your prayers for someone else. Don't want them.
