Masskara Festival



The MassKara Festival is a week-long festival held each year in Bacolod City, the capital of Negros Occidental province in the Philippines every third weekend of October nearest October 19, the city's Charter Anniversary.

Etymology

The word "MassKara" is a portmanteau, coined by the late artist Ely Santiago from the word "mass" meaning "many or a multitude of the people", and the Spanish word cara meaning "face". A prominent feature of the festival is the mask worn by participants; these are always adorned with smiling faces. MassKara thus means a multitude of smiling face'.

Features

The festival features a street dance competition where people from all walks of life troop to the streets to see colorfully-masked dancers gyrating to the rhythm of Latin musical beats in a display of mastery, gaiety, coordination and stamina. Major activities include the MassKara Queen beauty pageant, carnivals, drum and bugle corps competitions, food festivals, sports events, musical concerts, agriculture-trade fairs, garden shows, and other special events organized ad-hoc every year.

Take time for a Great Weekend

I love the man that can smile in trouble,
that can gather strength from distress,
and grow brave by reflection.

Beautiful sunset on the Serengeti...HOMEPAGE POTD  6/1/10

Take time to play - It is the source of perpetual youth.
Take time to be aware- It is the opportunity to help others.
Take time to laugh - It is the music of the soul.
Take time to be friendly - It is the road to happiness.
Take time to dream- It is what the future is made of.
Take time to give- It is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to work - It is the price of success.
There is a time for everything. . .

Take time for a wonderful weekend :))

Have a great weekend, dear friends. Hugs, Shanti

Amazing Grace on 2 Native American Flutes at One Time

It's funny how....


It's funny how hello is always accompanied with goodbye.
It's funny how good memories can start to make you cry.
It funny how forever never seems to last,
it's funny how much you'd lose if you forgot your past.
It's funny how "friends" can just leave you when you're down.
It's funny how when you need someone they're never around.
It's funny how people change and think they're so much better.
It's funny how many lies can be packed in one "love letter".
It's funny how people forgive even though they can't forget.
It's funny how one night can contain so much regret.
It's funny how ironic life turns out to be, but the funniest part of all, is that none of that's funny to me.

Shine!

1

A good laugh is sunshine in the house.
(William Makepeace Thackeray)

1

False friends are like our shadow,
keeping close to us while we walk in the sunshine,
but leaving us the instant we cross into the shade.
(Christian Nestell Bovee)

1

Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations.
I may not reach them,
but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them,
and try to follow where they lead.
(Louisa May Alcott)

5

If you spend your whole life waiting for the storm,
you'll never enjoy the sunshine.
(Morris West)

6

Just living is not enough.
One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little love :))

Many hugs & Kisses from Shanti

Insanity


In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.
Friedrich Nietzsche



I want a world without war, a world without insanity. I want to see people do well. I don't even think it's as much as what I want for myself. It's more what I want for the people around me. That's what I want.

(Tom Cruise)









Insanity - a perfectly rational adjustment to an insane world.

(R. D. Laing)


Only love is insanity, in a normal way. The ancient Greeks knew that. It is the taking over of a rational and lucid mind by delusion and self-destruction. You lose yourself, you have no power over yourself, you can't even think straight.
