Each year, it has been a habit to attend to Simbang Gabi.
Unlike from the pass years, this year's Simbang Gabi is far different.
You may see social distancing and all are wearing mask. This is for safety purposes.
One of my wishes in this year's Simbang Gabi is in order for this pandemic to end soon.
A while ago, initiative was the topic.
Father said, "Iti initiative, adda kenti maysa a tao dayta. Uray aan mo ibaon, ubraen na. Ngem ti sadot, uray mamin anom nga ibaon, aan nga mapan ta sadot ngarod."
Translation: "Initiative is inculcated to anybody. Even if you do not command someone for doing something, he will do it. But a lazy person, no matter how many times you command him, he will not move for he is lazy."
After the mass, we sing joyful Christmas song.
This is just the first day. More days to go.
Peace be with us and May God Bless us all!
Advance Merry Christmas!
