Today is Easter Sunday. But this Sunday which began on the wrong note when I was bitten by my neighbor's dog is indeed ending on a somber note as a very close friend of my father's suddenly died today. While in a deep reverie, I was just wondering about the resurrection of Jesus, the reason Easter is celebrated the world over, I could not but find symbolic similarities between Jesus's crucification and his resurrection.
What this incident as well as teachings of all other major religious scriptures from round the world teach us is that we should always follow the path of righteousness. Even if we face troubles while following this path, we should consider them to be just temporary stumbling blocks that will lead us to be better persons.
We should always strive for attaining what we really believe in because only when we are totally convinced about something then only can we really look forward to it and go all out trying to attain it, like there is no tomorrow left.
