Wandering Seinfeld like in a parking garage “The car was on level 3 “we assured ourselves. Then out of nowhere we heard trumpets and guitars and singing words we didn’t understand. Forgetting the car we rushed to look down at the street below. There was a parade, no wait there’s a cross and Jesus. Oh it is Good Friday. What we were witnessing was A Passion Play or in Spanish El Villa de Cruz. Viva mobile phones. Heres what I captured.

He’s bare foot and the Roman guards are helping with the Cross. You could hear the crack of the whip, I think they were using fireworks because it was so loud.

Even though we were 3 stories up it was startling profound to watch, even for me who often finds spirituality in nature. This is the rawness of human nature at its worst and best…

Let me know what you think.

I’m adding a link to Color Your World Scarlet   because the robes are the right color I really like sharing these photo captures.

  1. Sometimes the unexpected can move us in ways that we do not anticipate. Pageantry and tradition can do it. I agree with you. Nature is the source of my spirituality, even as I am proud of my heritage. Happy Photo Challenge.

  3. What a wonderful thing to see! Even though the Passion shows off some of the worst of human nature, it was a necessary part of God’s plan to save us, showing that even evil is overcome by God. What a relief to know when so much of life looks bleak!
