Valentine's Day
Every February 14 is celebrated in several countries of the world with great enthusiasm and joy on Valentine's Day. A very special day for many, where the importance of love is highlighted and, despite the belief of its commercial origin, comes from much earlier. Specifically from the third century in Rome and the death of Valentine, a priest sentenced for secretly celebrating marriages of young lovers.
This festivity, assimilated by the Catholic Church, dates back to the third century in Rome, where a priest named Valentin opposed the order of Emperor Claudius II, who decided to prohibit the celebration of marriages for young people, considering that singles without family were better soldiers, since they had less ties and sentimental ties.
mardi gras
Mardi Gras es el nombre del carnaval que se celebra en Nueva Orleans, Luisiana, Mobile, Alabama, y Mississippi (EE. UU.). Su nombre deriva del francés, que se traduce directamente al español como «martes graso o fofo», (semejante al Jueves Lardero español) pero se denomina tradicionalmente como "Martes de Carnaval".
It is celebrated the day before Ash Wednesday. Mardi Gras is properly the parade that takes place on the last day, although many times, it is associated with the whole season. The so-called "Fat Tuesday" refers to the fact that it was the last day to enjoy the culinary and carnal pleasures before the time of abstinence that marks the beginning of Lent and Holy Week.
LA CATRINA
La Catrina is a symbol of death or, as it is said in learned terms, it is a memento mori (a reminder of death).
Los memento mori tienen su origen en la antigua Roma y servían para quitarle la soberbia a los generales que salían victoriosos a las calles. En los desfiles, detrás de ellos, venía un siervo recordándole sus limitaciones como humano.
And it does not matter if one is rich, poor, conqueror, slave, male or female, heterosexual or homosexual, tall or small, white or brown, strong or weak ... we are all going to die.
