Lockdown with Me: Easter

Disclaimer: I feel the need to preface this with the fact that I do not consider myself a Christian, however, I do understand that Easter as a holiday is extremely meaningful to the majority of the population.

I enjoy Easter for three reasons: Easter egg hunts, chocolate and bunnies. Yes, I realise that it isn’t very spiritual of me, however, the holiday has no spiritual meaning to me. I am totally respectful of those to whom it does hold spiritual value for, like you go Glen Coco but it really just isn’t up my alley.

I spent today doing crafts with my family and hiding/finding Easter eggs as well as working. What work you may ask? Macbeth. There’s something so blissfully ironic about reading of death on a holiday encompassing resurrection. I am, however, extremely uninspired. On one hand I realise that it is a holiday and I should catch a break, however, isn’t lockdown essentially one big public “holiday”? I mean I’m working on that big public “holiday”, but you get the picture. I guess, I’m just worried that it means that if I am uninspired and catch a break today, that break will continue over the course of the next few days and honestly, I can’t afford that. I do feel a lot more productive in my free time when I’m blogging here or on Studying Amino (yes, I realise that I’m a huge nerd thanks) or even just journalling. I guess what I’m trying to say is that if you don’t feel productive due to a disinterest in work, writing and/or drawing can help preserve that sense of productivity for creatives such as myself. It seems to be working for me.

For those who celebrate it: Happy Easter!
