One of my friends recently asked me what is so great about the Good Friday. I was stumped and dumbstruck, but later i was able to tell this to him. Take a rope and tie around your hands. Then try to work. Try to do the things that you eve enjoy doing. You would find your self crippled to do the task. Like in the picture, we are stuck, hands tied, incapable of our own escape. Stuck in the rut. But imagine if on a day some one who you donot know comes and removes the ropes, and sets you free. Wont that day be good! Will you not celebrate this day? Yes you would, you would fill your self with everything you like. 
This is what was done 2000+ years ago on a day, take friday for instance, and won't you celebrate this day for ever if you were tied hands and legs and about to be drowned in a pool filled with crocks. This is good Friday people. A celebration, a great party, a time to think how good God is and how great is the life he gave to you and me. This is salvation and redemption people. This is all about easter and Christianity in short. Its not a religion, its a life style.Then Easter, well its the after party - party, that is when you finally meet the person who saved you, you are happy that you are alive, and now you are happier that the person who saved you would be with you for ever more, like the hero that you look for, the one who can save you, the one who saved you. Your mighty defender, your personal Superman. Have a good relation with him. Keep him closer to your heart.
God bless and have a blessed Easter.
