The Sacrifice

Still a little dazed from this Good Friday's revelry with a couple of friends (and more absinthe than I've had for quite a while), I've come to think of the traditions that make this era quite so memorable.

Theme of death and rebirth, and feasting after a long while of fasting.

Sounds rather pagan to me.

Still, will people ever get this? I don't know. And yet I love those traditions for being the customs that colour these days with such broad, wide strokes!
