If you’re in a Christian part of the world or if you’re a believer anywhere in the world, today is the start of a three day cycle celebrating death and rebirth (or ascension, maybe that is a better word). Many people treat this as a time of reflection and celebration.

Why not try something a little bit different this year?

Don’t focus completely on the literal, or the myth, around this time of year.

Try looking at this example, the death and rebirth of Jesus, as a way to ascend or to improve. Maybe you feel like you are at a plateau and, in your own way, you are suffering there. Maybe you have critics that are dragging you down. Maybe you are your own worst critic.

Try to figure out a way to rise above the critics, stay true to yourself, and inspire others to make a positive contribution to the world.

Maybe that’s a hidden lesson of the Easter story.
