The Easter feeling every man has his own. It is a quiet prayer and gaviles about the resurrection of Jesus Christ, one of the rituals to come to honour, another chance for the whole family to spend their holidays together. The spring sunshine, the sun-floors, the exquinocation, the pagan and Christian Easter - decades and hundreds of eating, all blown a large and small waiting and joy in the celebrated spring festival, which brings the message of the return of the sun and light, the victory of light over the darkness, the right victory over the evil, and ultimately the resurrection.
On April 1, Griškānu parish celebration was organized in the afternoon so that people could both celebrate the festival of Christ's resurrection and come to a event in the cultural house, as it is not surprising today that the same person in Easter after the service purchases a “Easter hares” produced in the supermarket in China and goes to a very timely celebration of festivals.
The rain and cold weather during this year's early Easter did not prevent the celebration of the road to the place of the event. For entertainment, THE entire family was cared FOR BY THE members of the dramatic collective “Aizspogulija” and the youth centre “JOLO”. There was a fun and friendly atmosphere in the hall, both small and large, and young and not so young parish people settled on a common festive table. The event started with the dramatic performance of “Aizspogulija” Easter. There was no blowing of the hares of the hares. The participants in the event both danced and mentioned the puzzle, both playing games and participating in Jautras competitions. The joy and fun did not miss the spring day, but the greatest satisfaction was the roll of eggs. Each wanted his Easter Olympia to fall farthest. The hatching of eggs was also very intense – it is one of the most fun activities in Easter. The great day of the Latvians is the festival of life, sun and fertility, so it is important for everything that is round – the cheese drum, the butter cib, the king, the peas and, of course, the eggs. In our ancestors, the egg was not a good product, so in Easter, when the eggs of the real whale were eaten, it was done with great pleasure. Faith reports: eggs must be eaten to be rounded as an egg, both himself and cattle; to be good cereals and flax. So the hares, in preparation for Easter, had painted a lot of eggs to get to all the celebrators. The most active participants in the event earned full pockets with eggs.
It was also possible to make a creative appearance in the egg painting workshop. After the evaluation, the three most beautiful egg paints won the prizes – egg bottles.
The days become taller, the sun warmer. What a miracle to believe, we'll find such miracles! So that all spring would be so nice and colourful as the eggs in the Easter Hare basket!
