Friday 13 April My Name Day Story Lore and Gardening
Greetings Steemit People!
So Funny story ...My Name Is Stefan Dragos Alexandru and I am from Romania.
In 1988 APRIL 6th I was born , after a short period of time my parents took me to the church to get baptized by a priest.
The priest was at a sort of a conference with many church leaders at that time and so my parents open the bible (as per custom -lipoveni -orthodox old rite) and calculated my year, day and hour that I was born and put 3 names from Romanian history:
Stefan cel Mare
Stefan cel Mare (Stephan the Great) and Saint, (sanctified by the Church) was the lord of Moldavia between 1457 and 1504. He was the son of Bogdan II, reigning for 47 years, the longest reign of medieval times in the Romanian Lands.
Dragos Voda
This is a painting of Dragos Voda by Vasilescu O.
The chronicles say that the Romanian Voivod (Ruler) Dragoş, when hunting and a aurochs, passed from Maramureş to Moldavia's water and liked the place, sat there and populated the country with the Romanians from Maramures.
Alexandru cel Bun
He was the lord from 1400 to 1432 of Moldavia.
Now my parents (well my mom and grandparents actually because my father was out of the picture) went and made a birth certificate for Stefan Dragos Alexandru.
Then they took me to the priest that just returned from the conference to baptize me....well here things got complicated....because the priest said the calculation was wrong....
He took the book and calculated again and gain and...again and found the same result:
Ipati
The Story of Ipathias of Gangra
At one time his enemies wanted to kill him and trow rocks at him and shoved their swords into him all for him to fall from a cliff and die.
So the saint fell half dead in the water that passed through that gulf, after waking up in pain, raising his eyes to heaven, said, "Lord, do not count their sin."
When he was praying to God a woman came with a rock and repeatedly smash his head until there where only pieces.
After she killed him the story tells us that she was possessed by the Devil and she repeatedly hit her chest with the rock until the rock was a a part of her chest.
AND SO...The Priest Baptized me Ipati
Now I can say that I am very lucky actually because I can celebrate my birthday 2 times :
One on 6 april and the other on 13 of april .
So on friday the 13th was my Name Day Hooray!!!
On this day I woke up (WOKE level 3) and made my breakfast and took a slice of cake . After that I took my shovel and done some gardening.
I took my sports camera myria 4k and for the lolz I put it on my shovel ...I was thinking:
Hey they mount these cameras on head, arm, leg, dashboard so why not a shovel?

I loved also the music at the end, did you do it by any chance?
Yes @fevronia.
This was a very old project of mine when I started youtube ...at that time I was making small music bits with a program called Fl Studio.
I still used it today when I want to mix something .

i think
It is probably the juxtaposition of ‘unlucky Friday’ and ‘unlucky 13’ that has made much of Western civilisation so nervous on that particular day.
We get at least one Friday 13th every year, and often two.
garden is also awesome looking
Thank you very much @masterlegend and I feel the same way about the day and number 13 as it has always brought me luck.
yes
The story is very interesting. :) I like to your story read. The idea of combining the camera with a shovel is great. This Action Camera gives good results. Congratulations @cynetyc and Happy birthday to you
many history behind it
Friday the 13th – considered to be one of the unluckiest days of the year, with many Britons fearing what the day entails.
From walking under ladders to finding a lone magpie, we Britons are aware of several eerie superstitions and in recent years Friday the 13th has become a superstition in itself.
The supposedly unlucky date will occur once more this year, in July – but why is the day thought to bring bad luck and what has led to the increase in paranoia?
by the way photos are looking awesome
I read a lot about the 13 day period and the number itself.
Many from my country as well fear this number but for me this number was with me many times:
And many many more...
For me it brought me luck and happiness .
really great @cynetyc
