Simple Celebration


 

Every Ilocano looks forward to the yearly celebrated kannawidan because of its grand celebration of our culture. This festival the end of January celebrates the best of Ilocos Province. This is the time that every ilocanos gather together not just to celebrate their bounty harvest but also to show the tradition of every Ilocanos.

This year Kannawidan Festival isn’t that grand compared to the previuos years because of COVID-19. Residents of Ilocos Sur made a simplier celebreation for the festival. The provincial government has announced strict health guidelines to observed during the celebration,  usually Kannawidan festival is celebrated for a month but sadly it will only last for a week this year. The provincial tourism office opened the trade fair and food court but there is an age limit and will be given a safe pass for those who will visit. But despite this pandemic we can still celebrate Kannawidan festival in a simple way.

Smiles Painted On Our Face

Resilience is the best word to describe the filipino people in times of hardship. Many people around the world paint us as a cluster of smiling faces amid the face of hard times. This display a national representation of  a sturdy nation, a nation who bounces back swiftly with a gag and smile as their weapon.  This sight somehow raise the courage of every person that everything will be all right soon.

Let as all be the Superior

Image
 During the old years leaders has been responsible for deciding the role of womn in the society.  During this years, men  have been the superior while have been midiocre. Society has this creed that women are sole laborers and household workers and they weren’t granted the same opportunity as men. In todays world, women can now do many things that are one time were considered offensive. Becuase of the many many amazing women and their fight to be treated equal, women now have a lot of opportunities that weren’t available before. Women would not be where they are today if they would not fight for their rights. The entire history of the right for women to be trated equal takes twist and turns but eventually turned out alright.
