gamavor Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 The cleaning power of Vardavar Yerkir/Arm 1 July 05 The Armenian Apostolic Church is marking one of its holidays on July 3, known as Vardavar. Traditionally, on that day people pour water on each other symbolizing their belief that by doing so they clean themselves of faults, sins and mischief. Therefore, it would be very nice if our political and public figures actively participated in this year's celebration of the Vardavar. The opposition could, for instance, pour water on the authorities to help them get rid of their poise and position to see everything in rose eyeglasses. The authorities, in turn, could pour water on the opposition to clean them of their pessimism. Taxpayers and businessmen could "cool" their hearts by "bathing" tax and customs inspectors. Artists could "water" the culture minister as much as they wish instead of spreading gossips. Just imagine how thrilled would drivers feel after pouring water on traffic cops! Politicians used to offer dull interviews would be exited by dampening journalists. Who knows, maybe the Vardavar water could really help us all to get rid of everything that prevents us from having a strong state, developed country and a happy and solidified society. http://groong.usc.edu/news/msg117664.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
