Bunnies, colored eggs, candy and flowers are all symbols of Easter for both Christians and non-Christians.

This can mean new life in your attitude or a life-change. Just as fresh tender grass thrusts itself up from the ground, baby chicks emerge from that cracked shell, and people rise above unpleasant happenings. Easter is the beginning of everything that is new, beautiful, fresh and hopeful. It guarantees the promise that all things can again become fresh.
