Easter & Christianity
Easter commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ; it is celebrated with joy and happiness by Christians all over the World. The day which Easter falls is different from year to year. Most dates of other events of the Christian calendar are actually related to the date Easter falls on each year. The interior of churches are decorated with flowers and relevant hymns and songs are sung on the day. Not everything about Easter can find its way from Christianity, for example, the Easter bunnies have pagan origins.
The Story of Easter
On Good Friday, Jesus was taken down from the cross where He was executed via crucifixion. From the Cross He was taken to a cave where He was buried. The entrance of the cave was placed a great big stone and the cave was guarded so that no one could take the body away. On the Sunday that followed, some women went to visit the cave to find that the stone had been removed and that Jesus’ body was no longer there. What had happened was that Jesus was spotted later that day alive and well, and His followers realised that He had been resurrected from the dead by God.

The Visit Primark
Today we went to Primark. I hate having to go out shopping with my wife, just because she spends ages in each shop which really drains the life out of me. I get so bored in the shops. When I go shopping for myself, I usually go in the shop find I came for then leave all done within 10 minutes. And that includes paying for the item too!To be positive about the shopping experience in Primark, I will start with the pros of Primark:
1) Clothes are cheap there;
2) My wife gets a lot of items from Primark saving me a packet as she does not have to get similar items of clothing from elsewhere;
3) Clothes are cheap for toddlers too and they are not fashion conscious and their friends are just too young to have been influenced by the fashion media
Negatives (or cons):
1) No sitting area for men or women who have partners that also love the stuff at Primark;
2) Worried that my wife will turn into a model for Primark because she will obviously wear what she is buying and often too;
3) With all these cheap clothes some people some place are paying the price, but I guess we encourage this by buying the clothes but at the same time it puts people in employment in particular conditions and circumstances.
