Mingaw Ang Pasko sa Sta Catalina

Unlike previous Christmas in Sta Catalina, Today is the saddest, quiet, and less fun. I can't see Christmas decors, nor the annual inter-barangay belen contest where people from different places meet and enjoy watching the colorful decors and lights.

So just wondering, Nganong walay decorations sa park karon? Nganong walay inter-barangay belen contest karon?

Well, I'm just having a thought that they might saving for electricity? (haha!)...hope not for the upcoming elections. (whew).

I hope there's still preparing activities where people can see and enjoy. I know, it's not the decors, nor the "mabonggang" Christmas lights that bring people together, but the love that binds us together.

But truly, Mingaw jud ang pasko sa Sta Catalina karon!
