A blessed day to those who observe
Apr. 2nd, 2010 06:56 pmI neglected to write yesterday to wish those who observe, a blessed Maundy Thursday, so I shan't forget today, to wish a blessed Good Friday.
Passover began earlier this week, and I always like it when Passover and Easter fall close together on the calendar. It makes far more sense to me to base the timing of Easter around the timing of Passover, since the Last Supper was a Passover seder/feast. I realized the other day that Easter seems to be sneaking up on me somewhat because we haven't taken the time to watch The Ten Commandments (or Prince of Egypt). Every year I tell George we should watch The Passion of the Christ, and every year I . . . can't bring myself to do so. The movie is so intense and hits on such a level . . .
Our dress rehearsal went well on Wednesday. And I don't 100% know where it came from, but I started crying (in an appropriate spot), and it got a little messy. We're doing a little bit of a multimedia thing and using clips of the crucifixion from various movies (one of my favorite life of Jesus movies being The Visual Bible's 'Matthew'), and watching them, there are times I just can't hide my reaction.
I'd planned to do my SPN review, but it feels kind of odd to be delving into that when my mind is elsewhere.
