I've been to my first Holy Communion during Holy Week. Everything about me is just buzzing at the moment and I think, I know, yes, I know, I have God to thank for that.
The change in me in a few short weeks has been amazing.
But I understand people get sad and mournful about the death of Jesus on the Cross, and I must admit, I don't know why this should be so.
His death was important. More than sorrow, I feel joyous, and happy, Im amazed, Im in awe, Im speechless, Im thankful, that God would send his only son to die for our sins, for my sins - and Im worthless and insignificant in comparison, and through the death of Jesus he has lifted me up.
Three days later Jesus rises from the dead.
The beauty, the majesty, the power of this.
Why should people be upset?
