Happy Easter to all! I woke up at dawn today to witness the easter festivities at our church today. It is called Salubong here in the Philippines and it involves two different processions at the same time. One bears the Virgin Mary and the other bears Jesus. They set out from church on different directions, circles the community, then set out to meet once again at the church. It is a fairly nice representation of The Resurrection of Christ that has been a tradition here since time immemorial. After that, Mass commences as usual.
For me personally, I celebrate Easter with a renewal of faith in Him. Please don’t get me wrong, I am not a religious person by nature. But I do believe in God. I do beieve that there’s an unseen force that watches over us and guides us. Like I said before, It is this faith that helps me endure all the hardships I am going through, and maybe the same goes with other people.
Happy Easter!
