THE PIG WAS THE PROTAGONIST

Fuente

I remember the Patron Saint Festivities of my beloved Villa de Cura in the state of Aragua (Venezuela). Village of grace and lordship that celebrated them several decades ago with sack races, egg races in spoon, rise to the stick taught (Where the most precious prize was ... A pig!

Everyone swirled next to the stick greased with tallow with shouts and applause to raise the participant:

- Go ahead!

- Above!

• Go up up!

The winner savored the trophy: A succulent pig with its red apple in the mouth and bed of lettuce, other times it was a pig on foot (I mean, alive). In order to get it they tried to climb that stick, like little monkeys and when they thought they were going to reach the end of the stick ... Zuas! To the ground. The hard rattle, until there came the effort to eat marranito.

One of the qualities of those born under this sign of the pig in the Chinese Horoscope is that they do not nest resentments and forget quickies. They have a lot of patience and persistence. Their friendships become eternal and they expect others to ignore their failures or weaknesses just as they do.

Well, how the saying goes: Who likes to eat earth that carries its clod. Palo Teach more I never saw you, better I start to fatten my pig for the coming December give it its stick and red pig colorin this story is over ... who does not stand is sitting.
