A picture of a Fiesta in Quiapo(located in the Philippines)
Also scenes captured from a Fiesta in Quiapo
The dedication of these Filipinos is very superficial on the pictures above and it reminds me of a text message that i received not a long time ago and here's the story:
In the middle of one of my boring vacation days, I received a very mind-opening group message in my phone. I must say that it is something that is worth digesting because I usually just read and forget group messages because sometimes it contains nothing but blubbers and senseless stuffs but “the message” belongs to the unique ones for it contains a message that inculcates in your mind.
The message goes like this:
---start---
♥♥♥
Isn’t it strange
How a 100-peso bill
Appears to be a large amount
When you donate it to church
But such a small amount
When you go shopping?
♥♥♥
Isn’t it strange
How an hour
Seems so long
When you are in church
And how short
When you are having fun?
♥♥♥
Isn’t it strange
How everyone
Wants front row tickets
On concerts and show
But they do whatever is possible
To just sit at the last row
In the church?
♥♥♥
A usual but strange reality
We say GOD is are priority
But do we prove it everyday?
♥♥♥
Hope you’ll have time
To pass this message
---end---
My brain ticked and it relayed, “I find it mind-opening and you’ll never find it that way if you are not guilty of it.”
I want to know what your mind told you after reading this message so don’t be shy to leave some comments
wow! i was blown away with this post.
