Easter was always my favorite holiday.
And Spring was always my favorite season.
But "April is the cruelest month" as T.S. Eliot once noted.
We endure as we isolate ourselves from friends and families. We assure ourselves that it will end soon and things will return to "normal".
However, things have not been "normal" for some time - at least 4 years.
It will take more than the defeat of this scourge to return to "normal".
It will take a return to sanity. It will take a defeat of the evil qualities that have been adopted by so many people. It will take a return to empathy and human compassion.
But first, we must realize. It will take a defeat of an evil narcissistic dictator and his accomplices before we can begin to heal ourselves.
It will not be easy and it is not guaranteed. Unfortunately, that is the only way to save our country.
The Easter flowers are blooming and the sun warms our shoulders on this Easter Sunday. But this month of April has been very cruel.
