Meaning
This reads as a simple case for using Easter time to reflect on the life of Jesus as a whole, not only on the holiday itself. It can be taken to mean that shared family celebration can include time spent considering that story, and it lands in any setting where a holiday is used for reflection as well as togetherness.
