Flagellation – an act of whipping own body for a solemn sacrifice to God.
On our way to the Resort in Bo. Barretto this morning, we saw these men on the street doing the flagellation. It’s the first time my daughter is seeing it. She asked why there was blood. I just answered “it’s their sacrifice for they have sinned”. Not sure if I answered right or if she understood. Someday she will on her own understanding.
Here’s another photo that I was able to capture. I told my cousin in law to drive slowly so I could capture them, but the traffic enforcer was in a rush that I almost missed it and went on a gutter. Teased my cousin that next time he should check car insurance online first before driving.I purposely joked about it coz everyone was seem to be tensed.

I am happy to share my adventures as I walk through motherhood and have to do most things on my own while my husband works miles away from us. Turning my passion into a profitable venture is another thing.
Authoring and managing this personal blog developed my social media awareness over the years.
From being an ex-OFW to doing what I am good at in the comfort of my own home – while taking good care of my 3 wonderful kids, I hope that people see me as a great inspiration when it comes to pursuing my passion and turning it into a profitable venture.
A giant leap like this is such a challenging journey but indeed is rewarding. A few bumps along this whole journey did not stop me from being the best version of myself.
I was just now googling around about this when I stumbled on your post. I’m simply stopping by to say that I definitely liked reading this post, it’s very well written. Are you planning toblog more on this? It looks like there’s more depth here for later posts.
