Easter-what does it mean to you?

Easter-what does it mean to me? What does it mean to you? I had to take a step back and remember what Easter even was this year. Sad but true. It seems as the years go by and my life gets busier and busier the time of preparation for/remembrance of these "holidays" gets shorter and shorter, and consequently at times less meaningful. Christmas and all that it brings... the birth of Christ, and now Easter where we Christians celebrate His death and the saving grace it brings us. I know that my relationship with Christ Jesus has made all the difference in my life. I wouldn't be who I am today if not for him.
This year, I worry. I get a day off. I am thankful for that day off cuz I get more rest. However, its so much more than just another day. This is the part I so want to remember, the part I want to celebrate. But will I take the time? If i choose not to go to church tomorrow, will I take the time to spend time with God and thank him? to pause and reflect what Good Friday means to me? I don't know. that's the part that worries me. that it will become just another day off- when it is such a day worth remembering and reminiscing.
