After days of fasting and prayerful meditation for some, days of finding the meaning of all the rituals and superstition for some, or simply being in the midst of all mass curiosities in the enumerable things and images that comprise the Holy Week celebration in Marinduque, comes Easter. All of Christendom breaks into joyful celebration. For the first time this year, the Moriones arena at the Boac riverbank was made the venue for an Easter evening concert with rockbands from Manila brought in by San Miguel Beer Corporation. Sanmig Night was the culmination of the Lenten celebration in Marinduque. For a hundred pesos equivalent to two beer-in-cans, entertainment and dancing that lasted well into the night, young people and the not-so-young had time to relax and have fun. Tomorrow means getting back to their daily routine - in the farms, the mountains, the seas, the big cities. But, enriched.
