Theme: Easter Holiday

I don't think I have a lot of observations for Easter Holiday. Since we don't have Easter Holiday in China, I knew this is a holiday until I came to US. For me, Easter Holiday means Easter eggs, Easter bunny, Easter lily, one of Christians' holiday, and a Friday off. I think this holiday is from Holy Bible which indicates the resurrection of Jesus. Jesus died on Friday and resurrected on Sunday. So, every year the Sunday after March 21 or after a full moon is Easter Holiday. In my opinion, the reason why Easter is significant to Americans is America is country have more than a half of people believe in Jesus Chris and read Holy Bible everyday. So, the resurrection Sunday for Americans is a evidence to prove Jesus is Sun of God. This is very important for their belief.

Thank you!
