Date Posted: 01:37:11 03/06/09 Fri In reply to: 's message, "Ostara - another sabbat is celebrated" on 11:13:01 02/26/09 Thu Hi Autumn- I've been super busy with work, so haven't been able to get here as much as I would like. But I can't complain I guess compared to what is happening to so many. To answer your earlier post, my friend is about the same. Still quieter than usuaul but opening up some. He just seems to be in a funk. And with the duration, maybe it isn't passing situation...I worry or wonder if it may be permanent with him. I guess the situation that came up, really affected him. My question to you is what was the significance of hiding the eggs and coloring them? Or how did it come about? Glad to have you back.
