#Grieving friday

[aaronofithaca05]

RELIGIOUS WARNING AND CONTENT AHEAD!!!

If you don´t wanna see it don´t see it, this post is for letting people who wants to know how Easter is celebrated in a Spanish town! Discretion is asked

WARNING

I´m not part of the Cofradías, I participate in a informal way, I don´t know everything about Easter and my info may not be correct, if you wanna know I encouraged to research and If possible live it even if you´re not Christian nor religious, Hope you like it and have a great time!

If you wanna read it and acknowledge the warnings, go ahead! I´m not here to stop you :D

The video was made by my mum.

I know this is not related to my usual topics!

But because I love my Holy Week, this is the parade of La Virgen de los Dolores (Virgin of the pains) in Lorca, (Murcia) her big day.

The blue scarfs are called pañuelos and every brotherhood (Paso) has a colour and and symbol. Blues (Azules) have a heart speared by a sword (Christ was speared in crucifixion, and also represents Mary's (María) grief and Whites (Blancos) have Saint John's Eagle.

Tonight, women will accompany the Virgin down the center of Lorca dressed as if lute (Manolas) carrying a candle each one, represnting the hope in Jesus resurrection.

The people with hats are not the KKK, they're dressed as nazarenos (a type of coustume that predates the 18th century).

Also the throne's bar are made of pure silver and not hollow, (also are carried by people not an engine); each manto (cape) is sewed in gold thread and made from silk with a dying technique (Tejedoras de Lorca is the group of women how still do this).

Lorca´s Holy week is really interesting cause is more a parade than a normal Easter procession, being a biblic-passional parade; we have Romans, Egyptians and more.

also the main street becomes sanded for horse´s well being, as they are used alone and in groups around the parade.

I will tell more about this holyday as Easter develops. :D

ok it's better than i expected but still. unfair as fuck.

#my mom doesnt deserve this. #she got so little time with him and for all that we didnt really get along that well. she was the happiest she's ever been with him #i shouldnt have waited till friday to go to her. and i should have texted him. so i guess i am grieving after all??? idk #guess i regret i never thanked him for making my mom happy. #and i regret i wasnt here with her when it happened but then she didnt tell me it was THAT bad and i genuinely thought id make it in time #oh well. too late now. #its just unfair and she deserved to be happy after all she's been through. me including lol

#i've held so much grief and anger and rage and anxiety and stress in my body lately that it has begun to force me to slow down #friday and saturday i napped like 10+ hours each day and felt exhausted when i was awake #it's not just about the grieving and rage and wanting to take revolutionary action. it's about other things too.

[chewablepebbles]

I've literally been going to at least one funeral of someone close to me every year since 2016 this is unsustainable! Do I make friends so quickly because I fear they'll leave so soon? I have like five hundred pounds of stuff from people that died and I can't get rid of it because I can't get new stuff with them. I'm so tired of being used to grief. When do I get to grieve for myself!

#i feel like im still waiting to bury the old body i had but the holes i dig keep getting filled with other people #can i not have a year without mourning #or at least a year where the only one i mourn is myself? #ive had to stop taking time off for it because id never get back #the funeral is saturday and im literally leaving a party before it and going back afterwards #im so tired! #its been a year since i finished therapy and it feels like forever and yesterday #who knew this was going to keep happening! #i cant go back because my therapist left when i did #im not even sure that its therapy i need and not just the ear of someone who isnt in grief #every year theres some horrific thing that only ever happens to other people but its my other people #and i leave and i cook and clean and get bloodstains out of the bag of clothing the hospital sends back #god i guess this is where all these weeks went. into here. #this sucks #the only thing i was able to make was a painting of the vulture that i brought in to the clinic #and im supposed to be doing an oil portrait for the funeral #i already gave them my easels and frames to display the pictures #tomorrow im spending all day making his favorite cookies before i leave for the party friday #im so sick of being the one to handle it #all of ny grieving is on a two month delay so everyone else has someone they can rely on #its not fair #im not supposed to lose this many people already

ok update i just finished making my card and i said / drew (lol) basically everything i wanted to say in it (except for the things i definitely can’t say now that this is happening lol). so i think maybe i might be ok with not saying what i want to say directly to her. but then when i say that im not ok with it at all LOLLLL so i think i need to sleep on it and maybe see what tomorrow brings

#purrs #sobbed hysterically writing the message and that was like 4 hrs ago (yeah.) and im still like dizzy and puffy eyed from it. i am not having #a good time lol. and it’s only going to get more intense this whole week and i don’t know if i can handle it. ive been overstimulated / #sleep deprived for like 2 straight days bc yesterday i was doing everything in my power to avoid thinking abt it and today i was doing #everything in mt power TO think abt it including being subjected to things that were hard and ofc the walk being a flop kinda lol. but omg. #mutuals i know it’s so deeply cringe but i have been vagueposting abt my work life since before i even got the fucking job. i know i look #mentally ill about it and i definitely am but my colleagues past and present are my best friends and my number 1 reason to be alive #actually. so this is just. idk. this feels very……. especially when this is someone who was never supposed to leave this suddenly. who i thou #thought i had years and years left with. and it’s just over like that and we have to say goodbye and i know it’s not even that big of a move #but it’s actually killing me. like physically. that this is happening rn. i don’t know what the fuck im going to do. and we aren’t even f #gonna be able to grieve openly at all but we are grieving and she doesn’t even.. like idk. maybe it just hasn’t occurred to her that we are. #but we literally are and its soooooooo bad. it’s so bad. i feel like im having a bad dream every day. i already felt like nothing was real #anymore and this helped abt -50000% with that sensation. like wtf is going on rn. she’s LEAVING. ON FRIDAY. FOREVER. FUCK! #but uh yeah the point is i do want to talk to her and if it was anyone else i would. but when it comes to emotional stuff and being honest #w each other abt how one makes the other feel… we are incompatible im afraid. she doesn’t want to talk abt it and all i want to do is talk b #but im shy and weak so i cave and just do everything in my power to give her what she needs and then i feel shattered for the rest of the #day / week / whatever. it fucking sucks and im not like that w anyone else in my little irl world (except my p*rents ofc LMAO) but it’s like #onmgggggg. can we please just talk abt how it is so painful you are doing this and comfort each other in it somehow. LOL! like i am in so mu #much pain i can’t even speak and she didn’t even look at me when i flicked my eyes over to her during the silences. CRINGE! girl she doesn’t #care about you 😭😭😭😭 except she does. idk. it’s just sooooo. idk. my brain is not right it hasn’t been since i got the news. i think im dying #delete later #OMG ALSO it is now the wee hours of july 26 which means that 3 yrs ago right abt now i did something so very stupid that made me have my #first very bad breakdown ever and it led to me realizing i needed counseling again. so maybe in the spirit of this anniversary i will do #this stupid thing (of asking to talk and then saying what i want to say even though i wrote it out) and then have a very bad breakdown and t #then go to counseling 🥳✌️

[babygirlcowboy]

Just created the worst class schedule ever just bc I refuse to go to campus on Fridays

#i am willing to sacrifice my sanity during the rest of the week if it means I dont have to do anything on fridays #im grieving in advance for the pain I will go through next semester #9am bio lab and then 10 minutes later i have to be in the interactive learning center 🥹🥹🥹 #yeah future me is going to hate that one 👍

Israel has cut water, electricity and food to Palestinians in Gaza. They are buying 10.000 M16 rifles and plan to distribute to civilian settlers in the West Bank to hunt down Palestinians. They're bombing the only way out of Gaza through Egypt, after telling refugees to flee through it, and have threatened the Egyptian government in case they let aid trucks pass through. Entire families, generations, are being wiped out and left to wander the streets hoping they don't get bombed.

Palestinians are using their last minutes of battery to let the world know about their genocide and are being met with a wall of "What about Hamas? What about the beheaded babies? Killing children on either side is bad!" even though the propaganda claims have been debunked over and over again. How cruel is it to ask somebody to condemn themselves before their last words? Or before grieving the loss of their entire families? When there's no such disclaimer to Israelis even though their government has shown over and over genocidal intent? Like who are you even trying to appease? What will your wishy washy statement do against decades of zionist thought infiltrating evangelical and Jewish stablishmemts?

Take action. Israel will fall back if public opinion turns its tide. The UK fell back on its bloody decision to cut aid to Palestine under public scrutiny. The USAmerican empire spends $3.8 billion dollars annually solely on this proxy war while its people suffer under a progressively military regime as well. News outlets are canceling last minute on Palestinian speakers while letting Israelis tell lies unchecked. Palestinian refugees are being targeted in ICE establishments and mosques are already being hounded by the FBI. France and Germany have banned pro-Palestine protests, while Netherlands and the UK have placed restrictions . You have the chance to stop this from turning into repeat of the Iraq war.

I want to do something but there's hardly anything for me to do from Brasil besides spreading the word and not letting these testimonies fall on deaf ears. I'm asking you to do this same ant work from wherever you are.

Good Friday is always difficult for me because it’s the day my best friend, who was betrayed, unfairly imprisoned, tortured and murdered, died for me….for us.

May we reflect on the suffering and inhumane treatment of our Lord Jesus Christ who was a living sacrifice in exchange for our sins 🩸

PS. An Angel came to wake me up this morning. It was miraculous!!!!

UPDATE:

The LORD wanted me to say Pilate is an example of following the crowd, of LEADERS following the crowd watching as an innocent man was sent to his death. This is what we are seeing today with our Jewish friends, and others elsewhere who are being unfairly targeted and punished.

Martin Luther KING so famously quoted the following: “There comes a time when silence is betrayal”.

I believe this message confirms what the LORD has been saying about innocent people being condemned, false statements and the guilty walking away ‘SCOT-free’.

The meaning of scot-free

The Francis Scott Key bridge

The Snake 🐍 that got away (the betrayer, the deceiver)

The injustice we are seeing against Israel 🇮🇱

We should always DEFEND the innocent. A good leader does that EVEN IF it costs him/her everything.

Martin Luther, Abe Lincoln and JFK were those who risked their own careers and lives to save others from SLAVERY and RACIAL DISCRIMINATION and their names are immortalized FOREVER.

This is why until this very day, they are remembered as Great Men.

Their success came at the expense of a major sacrifice… their LIVES. Sounds like Jesus. Yet we celebrate them because they were brave enough to stand up against the crowd for what was morally right.

Silence in the face of injustice is a sin to God. Although Pilate thought he was washing his hands clean of Jesus’ death, and by the standards of man he thought he got away ‘scot-free’, he did not. This was the beginning of the fall of one of the greatest empires on Earth…

ROME.

Right after Jesus’ death, the EARTHQUAKE was a sign to the people that what the Pharisees and the Romans had done was wrong, but also that the powers that be would FALL.

Whoever has ears let them hear what THE SPIRIT says to the churches 👂🏾

⛪️

Make the right decision

bluebell :   does your muse learn from their past ,   or are they prone to repeating the same mistakes ?

Botanical Headcannons

Oh look, his favorite flower.

Legato is... mixed on this regard. He is capable of looking back and seeing past mistakes, picking out where things went wrong and finding problems to work on. But he's also bullheaded and fanatic, prone to being convinced that the way he's picked is the right one and the only right one. He has a bad habit of doubling down rather then actually fixing a problem, convinced that if he just hammers at the problem harder, it will be fixed.

He wants to be better but he doesn't really know how and often keeps trying the same things hoping it will work this time.

Usually it takes someone else he respects and cares about pointing out that he's just repeating his mistakes to catch it and shift gears to try something new. If he has a little help, he's far more capable of shifting his focus and actually learning from his past.

#masses demanding knowledge ( ask ) #mischiefmodig #meme friday #razor wires in my head ( musing ) #headcannons #bluebells represent humility constancy and love #and also death and grieving #they are Legato's particular favorite flowers

X's and O's

I recently learned that my ex-husband passed away. The news struck me like a stone. My feelings were a strange mix, my sadness multi-layered, and all of it took me down a road I had not traveled for a very long time. My ex-husband, Brent, found me at a time in my life when my heart had been completely broken and my self-confidence shattered. I was deeply depressed, taking too many risks, and…
