Today is Nazarene Day, or so, the title says, here in the Philippines. Technically we call it, "Piyesta ng itim na Nazareno", its always celebrated at Quiapo, Manila, held every year by the way. What shock me the most is that people are really craving for the "blessing" or "miracle" from God. I do so believe in this kind of stuff, but seeing them on TV ravaging like hungry people, hurting themselves just to get to Black Nazareth..
But then, while watching the TV and the Historian is talking about the Nazareth and stuff, he said, ".. if you are in pain, or suffering, you have to ease it.. because later in life you might receive something good later in your life .. " something like that.
I've always wanted to touch the Black Nazareth, hoping that maybe something good may happen, but I can't.. I'm far too weak to go! But i'll take my chances, but then again, I don't wanna! You see those people ?? (nah, of course you can't, its not "to be viewed around the world"), But come on! Imagine all those people racing to be "touching the Nazareth" while its moving, even they are touching the rope too! Don't they get burned?

Oh wait, suffering = miracle |
I think that's what they believe in. Its like how God suffered on carrying the cross while walking, with thorns as crowns and severely tortured... When you are suffered or in pain, you are trying to become one with God, hoping that if you suffered like him, he will give you something in return. Of course if you are in favor and you really want to feel how God feel the pain or suffered at that time, you can't just barge in and voluntary say, ".. I want to feel how God had suffered.. and so I will have a miracle.." and be in pain and suffered.. and regret the thing you have, and hell'a why'd you do that..? You have to have Faith in that way too. Its like Murdering someone in return of Money. In this case, you Suffer in return of Miracle.
By murder with no respect to yourself and the other man, no conscience? The other by suffer and in pain, and no faith? Do you think everything what you did for is doing for someone to make them happy? They are not, technically happy, you're putting you're life in danger, bucko .. If you guys are happy of what you did, I hope you continue being happy, I'm not saying any "happy ending", but how about...
