On Monday 28, was held in Andalusia Autonomous Community Day (to learn more about Andalusia and its history clicking here ) . I'm not much given to holding such events on the day of this or that. We are accustomed to celebrate the day of the Father, the Son and the Spirit Holy ... the Mother and Women, Children's, Labor, that of .... I do not know, it's as if it needed to devote one day each thing to note that this thing exists. I am among those who think that everyday is the grace to recognize and fair existence to all things, without having to spend one day a year, they deserve every day of the year taking into consideration the existence of Andalusia , father, mother or whatever. The problem arises when there is something that is marginalized, needs to be claimed to give worth and prominence, to call attention to that fact and claim unfair justice and the treatment they deserve. Sometimes marginalization, we do ourselves and wash our conscience with the celebration of these days ... The trouble is what is implied, since, on that day, we remember more of it, as if he were to focus on the energy and then re- old ways, that is, to continue ignoring its existence, and / or act has been done so far ...
That does not mean they do not share the excitement many people feel in these acts. It is the exaltation of a community, a group that sometimes scattered, is identified at the time, but then, everyone, continue on with it forever. I care much Andalucía, Castilla la Mancha also, Catalonia the Basque Country, Galicia or any other community. At the same time that Spain as a whole, Europe and the rest of the world ... I care about its people ... In times like these, it might have to focus more on the day of hunger, misery, poverty, injustice, love and encounter between peoples, all so present in the lives of those affected. There are things to shoot rockets, which one lives and no longer coming to this hopeless world where the interests of the few overlap the most, from the greed and avarice, without considering the consequences they may have for the rest of humanity.
But having said that, as a personal reflection as is quite usual in my Blog Stuff Antonio, I must admit that at day 28, in my town, Cuevas de San Marcos, is lived by a group of locals, an emotional ceremony that brought the group integrating the social local community.
The events began with a performance in the Plaza del Ayuntamiento, the town brass band. After playing some typical and popular pieces, sounded the anthem of Spain and, as a climax, that of Andalusia, while the people sang the lyrics, concluding with some living to another, including "Viva Andalucía Libre."
Later in the plenary hall a table was formed especially with older residents with the council of the municipality. Institutional speech was read and recited poems alluding to the Andalusian and its eight provinces. The reading group of the Municipal Library in rhapsody plan, raised cheers from the audience. The concert was started by its coordinator, Maria del Carmen Duran, a poem by José Antonio Muñoz Rojas, how well he praised the Andalusian customs, especially the Antequera area, his hometown. Later, each member of the group recited a poem dedicated to each of the provinces of Andalusia.
subsequently gave him a present to the director of Tilodisa, the residence of the third located in the town. It was a reciprocal as I understood, for his gift of a work of residents, the council itself, on the occasion of this celebration.
A highlight was the performance of the hymn sung by those present Andalusia hand in hand. There were a few tears of emotion, but not desvelaré that
eyes ... The truth is that, when going to act first and do, as always, pictures of my people ('ll end up becoming one of the chroniclers of the villa, although there are many, and better out there), I was asked to hang the pictures in my blog to present to those who visit me and I usually read. I can not deny, but rather the contrary, to record the fact is a pleasure for me. Therefore, in this slide are some photos of our people, the act and the almond blossom in their fields, I picked up that afternoon. Well advised to view them click on "View all photos" button below the slide and when loading, re-click on Full Screen. It is my small contribution to this day lived by my countrymen.
