Hello friends, my best wishes to all, today I want to share my experience of the weekend on the occasion of Easter 2023, where we witnessed the word and a climate where peace embraces us, therefore absolute tranquility.
On Holy Sunday, the day of the Lord's resurrection, we contemplated the various works of art in the temples in the company of family and friends in Trujillo.

For those who do not know, Trujillo is one of the 23 states of our beautiful Venezuela and belongs to the Andean region surrounded by splendid natural and cultural landscapes, a traditional town that preserves religious customs, we have the Patron Saint known as the Virgin of Peace, so in every church we see her beautiful statue.
I am not a lover of being in churches, I pray in my own way and dedicate time to God wholeheartedly from the moment we get up and go to bed. I respect any kind of religion and I also listen to their words.
But on these holy days, it is necessary to go to their temples, to give thanks therefore, to give Him a time full of self-examination, to respect the tradition is beautiful and exclusive.
Prayer comes from every corner of the world, he listens to us and to praise him is to honour his essence, like everything else there are people who are trained and others who are not, these are circumstances beyond the control of any individual, those who were trained in the catechism with the rules of prayer are very careful in prayer, as there are others who do not know it to such an extent, but only know an Our Father and a Hail Mary, all are very well received when they come from the heart and without prejudice.
Normally Catholics go to mass every Sunday, but I consider that it is not necessary to be beating our chest if when we leave the temple we judge our fellow men, the celebration of Easter carries with it backgrounds that only God and his children at that time could witness both joy and pain, the truth is that everything in life whether ancient or current goes hand in hand with the kiss of Judas to Jesus in any area of our history, therefore I go to the temple when my heart deserves it.
The weekends, should be surrounded by sharing whether it is family, friends and above all our inner peace to realize thoughts that help us to climb in life.
This Holy Week, for me it flew by as I worked until Holy Wednesday and I returned to work on Saturday, having Sunday free and enjoying it with my mother and friends in the church, I managed to take a couple of photos that I loved, I hope you like it inside the temple.
Works of art, both from the Trujillo State Cathedral, Santa Rosa and Araujas.
In the mass what touches me are the songs, full of feelings that mark each episode, whether it is a baptism, a celebration of achievement and what hurts us the most is to say goodbye to a loved one, moments that are never erased from our minds.
Such celebration comes from ancient times and that shows respect, both for God and society itself, in a world full of so much evil, shines the light of our Lord and all the heavenly court that accompanies him and always wins with his divine love.
I invite you to dedicate time to him, many will say that you don't have time, but will is power. And he always takes care of us and guides us even if we do not see him, the words that come from the depths of our being, are heard and valued, at any age, time or eventuality.
Do not refuse to open your heart, to listen and be heard, it is never too late, as the saying goes, I wish you endless beautiful adventures with your loved ones and may you come many holy weeks, surrounded by our families, friends to share food, drinks, laughter and anecdotes.
I used canva and the free translator deelp as my language is Spanish.
Blessings.
I'm glad you had a nice holy week. Nice temple, it looks like it has an interesting architecture. Long weekend, ideal to rest and enjoy with the family.
