Good Friday

I understand why this day is referred to as 'good' but I've always felt saddened by the anniversary of Jesus' Crucifixion. I remember crying in my room when I was a little girl after watching an Easter play at my church. I understood the sacrifice and was thankful for it, but I still didn't (and don't) like that it had to happen.
To be honest, it puts me in a foul mood ...which I know isn't 'Christ-like', but it's hard to shake the sadness that comes from the anniversary of the death of someone you love.
Thankfully, we know what happens 3 days later...and that's something not only worth smiling about, but living for.
