According to Vera Cala, "Yanqui's"
typically celebrate Halloween, but south of the border, the biggest
celebrations of the year follow Halloween and are known as the Days of the
Dead. In November 1 and 2, these
are the Days of the Dead, when the souls of the departed return
to join their families and friends in the land of the living. It is a joyous
time, without the tears which can make the return pathway slippery. Skeletons,
skulls and red devils are depicted happily cavorting. Even the holiday foods,
the sugar candies and the breads, are molded to look like "La
Calavera"—the skeleton of death.
Easter is when the day where our Savior was reincarnated by the Holy Spirit. Today’s momentous event is to celebrate His “Rebirth”--being a Resurrected Being. Many people, especially the Christians, usually celebrate every year this Easter through dancing, praying and other important rituals. This is the time also to open our souls and hearts to our Lord, Jesus Christ, for the good health and prosperity.
Christian followers are the experts in such a way that Easter is being celebrated. Focusing on His Rebirth, our Redeemer, it should be stringently observed in the month of April. We devote our time and efforts to celebrate and to pan out whatever activities to be initiated during Easter in order for us to recollect the significance of it to the devotees or religious people in general. It is one way of becoming closer to Him and makes ourselves devoted constantly and as dedicated children. We have to nurture the Easter activities by taking part actively and getting involved—just to experience and feel the true meaning of Easter.
