April 21

Centuries, nay ages, must pass away ere the Day-Star of Truth shineth again in its mid-summer splendor, or appeareth once more in the radiance of its vernal glory... How thankful must we be for having been made in this Day the recipients of so overwhelming a favor! Would that we had ten thousand lives that we might lay them down in thanksgiving for so rare a privilege, so high an attainment, so priceless a bounty! (‘Abdu’l-Baha, quoted by Shoghi Effendi in ‘The Dispensation of Baha’u’llah’)
Happy Ridvan!!
