When it is time to remain silent, or call it "meditation", which we all have at some time of the day, where only the echo of arrows, pasodobles, kettledrums, fireworks, conversations and fun resonates, in our heads, we are all he draws a sideways smile, which is continued with a grimace of sadness and a prolonged sigh for the nearest past.
What a satisfying job well done, well enjoyed and well finished.
I want to invite everyone to know this feeling, which can only be known by a few who are the ones who truly work and enjoy during 360 days and suffer for 5;
Yes, yes, I say suffer.
The responsibility that one takes, freely, to work and direct one of the greatest feelings that come out of the doors of each house, how to lead your Easter brotherhood, prepare the verbena of your neighborhood for your neighbors, organize the peña de la night of the thirtieth day, horse, harness, kábila, group ..., it weighs and weighs a lot, I tell you, and that is why I venture to say "suffer".
Needless to say, to disappoint yours, those closest to you, those who share this task with you for a full year, very long for those who do not get wet but very short for those who dedicate themselves to it body and soul, it is a disappointment that has almost no cure, no vaccine.
But the caravaqueño is armed with courage and faces a stage in his life where the small achievements eclipse the great disappointments and that is what makes caravaqueño celebration in each of its areas.
What I want to say with it:
That back in 1991 that I started, independently and directly to the party as a component, was when I began to know, firsthand, what it meant to enjoy them, in the two different ways that I consider.
Going to visit the dressmaker with the new brothers, is to enjoy the holy week from several months before.
Going to organize the twenty-four hours of indoor football with your friends from the peña caballista is to enjoy the festivities several months before.
Going to organize the pilgrimage of the horses of the wine is to enjoy the celebrations from the month of October and so on as the dates are approaching, which, yes, we will all enjoy equally.
With this I just want to put the alert and let everyone know, do not fall into the error of thinking that the periods of our city are periods of time in which you only get to Caravaca to pay and leave, as if only a time that has to pass through routine.
Those ideas are the ones that bombard us from the outside of our environments, and I think we have to break with all that.
Carava needs its people, their families, their homes, so that it continues to be a celebration as magnificent as our elders left us, who were leaving us time and money in this project, and guiding us along the way, they left us that we now enjoy and we, in turn, must transmit to our young people so that they in turn enjoy it and conserve it for the common good, hand in hand, sharing our experience and empowering their updated projects, which will be the ones that will lead to Caravaca to be what we all expect in the not too distant future.
Our young people with new projects and ideas are and will be those who will show us that they are capable of driving and building this future project of a new Caravaca 2.0, as it is now fashionable to describe everything modern and "cool".
Work 360 days at parties and not only for 5 very short days.
