Easter- the red pill

"You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe.
You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes. " - Morpheus

So this morning didn't go as planned...

the gate was locked.... but we were met with an offering of hot chocolate.

the music wasn't stellar, waves were loud, tide was up, drowns out the guitar...

the meditation was wonderful..... for those that could hear it........

.....the most amazing thing about the sunrise service is the people that show up.

Almost 300 people this morning in biting cold, harsh winds, suffering through smoke inhalation and frozen toes.

Christ has risen.

I looked out into the crowd of people, people that I love,
people that were there because they have taken the red pill .....
and joy overflowed in my heart.

every year,
no matter what,
I love the Easter sunrise service.
