It's Palm Sunday

_{Just noticed that the eye twitch started right here after the 1st set of palm cutting}

....and so it's palm sunday today and it's a thing to be happy about. If not for the triumphant entry into Jerusalem, at least all this fasting is coming to an end very soon and that's something one can be happy about.

One thing associated with the Palm Sunday is the palm leaf you find around in most churches on this day because the palm leaves were waved at Jesus at the point of his triumphant entry into Jerusalem. It is also used to represent the victory of the martyrs or even the victory of flesh or spirit which is why its presence is inevitable. Someone had to get it.

Who was going to get it??

I, volunteered to do the getting and that decision was not easy. I had to go to a different state from the one I reside, into the woods to get the palm leaves. It was fun and stressful at the same time- that's why I'd be making this post as short as possible. I've not rested since yesterday.

Currently, my right eye is twitching and so I won't be uploading pictures I took today. I myself don't like the look of my right eye, lol. I'll be uploading photos of yesterday below and maybe a little explanation if need be.

_{We were just about startin' the journey here.}	_{I was clearing the path to get to the main tree I wanted to get the palm leaves from.}
_{I felt like taking a picture at the end of the first set of palm cutting and the next thing I heard was move forward to create for us and I was like.... Ok}	_{So, this guy actually held a cutlass behind my head??! Now, am scared. Lol}
_{About to pocket my phone, and then these three on my right showed up. So, I had to take one more}	_{This right here is the weakest me in the past few months. The smile was faked for the camera because I was so weak cos I already worked myself out and then, we couldn't find any palm tree around anymore.}

There are more pictures but these are all I can post. My eyes can't take it anymore. I need to go to bed now. See you later.

HAPPY PALM SUNDAY!!!

Thank you for coming around!!

That little boy, @pearlumie.
