DO YOU LOVE CHRISTMAS SONGS? WELL, MANY HATE THEM!

 

 

 

Here we are! Christmas is back and with it the "catchphrases" of the traditional Christmas songs that pervade the shopping streets,  the stores, our homes. But not all people love them, of course. What about you ? Do  you love or hate Christmas songs?

EASTER TIME




Hi guys, how are you? I'm fine, luckily. Today I want to talk about one of the most important holidays in our country and not only. I'm talking about Easter! Let's find out more about this celebration.

Easter, like Christmas, is a consumerist bank holiday nowadays, together with Easter Monday (and Good Friday in the UK). Students and many workers take a break from school and work and people gather with family for a great dinner. Easter eggs, doves, Easter bunnies are just some of the many Easter symbols. However, what is the real meaning of Easter? 
In Christian countries, Easter has religious roots as it is the day where believers celebrate Jesus Christ’s Resurrection. According to the New Testament, Jesus died on the Cross on Friday (nowadays it is known as Good Friday) and then he resurrected on Sunday. On Easter Monday, instead, people remember the meeting between the Angel and the women in front of the sepulcher where Jesus was buried.
