    Today I have written two Easter cards.
    One to Berlin, and one to Tatarstan in Russia.
    Now I will take them to the nearest yellow post box.

    Not I but Easter never was a big thing in our house growing up. Nor were birthdays.

    Good for you. I got banned from a few churches for asking too many uncomfortable questions or making some very direct comments like, "I don't see why people celebrate someone's torture and murder".

    Is that why you do not write Easter Cards?

    German Easter Cards are more about flowers and the Easter Hare.
    Not so much about religion.

    Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate birthdays - and therefore they do not celebrate Christmas.
    What about Easter?

    JW's don't "celebrate" anything. They "observe". IIRC the observe their version of Easter--either the death or the resurrection-- based on the lunar calendar on whatever day of the week it falls be it sunday or wednesday.

    I have never sent nor received one. I do not recall my parents doing it either. I am not sure it is really an American tradition to send cards at Easter.

    So sending Easter Cards seems to be an "Un-American Activity". :)

    Your comments are often a bit off-putting. That's typically the reason I bypass them.
