San Blas Cord
Hello friends
Today I bring you the ancient tradition of this February 3 in my land.
Today is Sam Blas cordon day.
Blas was a doctor and bishop who is credited with the miracle of curing throat ills because he saved a child from dying choked with a fish bone.
That is why we have the tradition of buying the cord to bless it in front of the saint and tie it around the neck.
Our tradition says that if you have it hanging around your neck 9 days and then you burn it
Your throat will be protected all year.
What if it is true?
Of course not, can you imagine a winter without a sore throat even a day?
But what does it matter if we believe or not?
It is the tradition and makes us happy for a moment, the illusion keeps us and we all carry the beautiful laces around our neck.
There are many colors, everyone chooses their own and if you can't go someone will give it to you and you will receive it grateful and happy.
At the door of the church of San Nicolás, the stalls are crowded side by side, we each have our preferences.
You can also buy donuts and marshmallow candies also for the throat, these soften the cough.
The hands pull the laces and you take the one you like best, one for mom, one for mother-in-law, one for the husband, the wife, even for the neighbor, the bills and you pay, they are not expensive € 090 each cord, but I am sure that although they would be expensive we would buy them equally. Not by belief or religion, it can be by custom and tradition.
But I think it is a day of hope to believe that that throat that we have, that clears and coughs, that burns and hurts us, will heal with the cord if after 9 days you burn it.

Creo, estimado @spaco-negativo que estás ejerciendo un abuso y denotas una falta de educación que no viene a cuento. Tal vez el tag no sea adecuado, pero posiblemente haya sido puesto por error y hay una diferencia entre una persona educada y honesta, que avisa de esa posibilidad, de otra persona que demostrando una falta total de tacto y de sentido común, arrogándose el papel de juez y ejecutor, votando en negativo, lo cual dice muy poco de él y del proyecto que representa. El que puedas ejercer el derecho de curación, no significa que vayas de fascista por el universo steemit. Con educación todo tiene arreglo. Saludos
