Five farmers dance during heavy rain
CELEBRATING THE RAIN. During the heavy downpour last Thursday afternoon, five farmers (they were said to be farmers or mag-uuma) were seen jubilating in the rain at the Pilgrims Center facing the Basilica del Sto. Niño. “They were celebrating the coming of the rain,” an Ear informer said, “Nagpasalamat nga nakalingkawas sila sa huwaw (drought).”
HUNGER. One of the farmers said his family faced real hunger (“tinuoray nga gutom”) during the long dry spell. “Ang mga mais wa mamunga, ang nga lagutmon nangalaya, hastang mga manok namo nangawa,” the farmer said. “Angay lang maghugyaw pag-abot sa uwan.”
