Silent Devotion / #monomad challenge / [ING/ESP]
The photos 📸 are my entry to the #monomad contest from @monochromes and @brumest.
Greetings Hiver.
Looking at these photos I am sharing today, I ask myself what drives a person to make the decision to dedicate their life to God. These men in cassocks inspire a mysterious respect, something I cannot fully explain but that is present in every moment of their presence.
Seeing them walk through the streets during the procession, guiding the community with serenity and purpose, one cannot help but think about the inner strength required to give one’s life to such a profound ideal. Behind every cassock, behind every calm gesture, there is a story of searching, of questions, and of encounters with something that transcends the everyday.
This dedication is not only a matter of men. There are also women who renounce the superfluous to embrace a life of service, silence and commitment. In both decisions, the priest’s and the nun’s, there is an act of courage: choosing a path that does not promise comfort, but offers instead a kind of spiritual freedom that only those who live it can truly understand.
Perhaps it is that silent conviction, that clarity that needs no words, that makes their presence command respect. They remind us that even in the midst of noise and difficulties, there are still people willing to give everything for a faith, for a mission and for the hope of a world that is just a little more luminous.
Saludos Hiver.
Viendo estas fotos que hoy les comparto me pregunto qué impulsa a una persona a tomar la decisión de dedicarle su vida a Dios. Estos hombres con sotana inspiran un respeto misterioso, algo que no puedo explicar pero que está ahí en cada presencia.
Al verlos caminar por las calles durante la procesión, guiando a la comunidad con serenidad y propósito, uno no puede evitar pensar en la fuerza interior que requiere entregar la vida a un ideal tan profundo. Detrás de cada sotana, de cada gesto calmado, hay una historia de búsqueda, de preguntas y de encuentros con algo que trasciende lo cotidiano.
Esa entrega no es solo cosa de hombres. También hay mujeres que renuncian a lo superfluo para abrazar una vida de servicio, silencio y compromiso. En ambas decisiones, la del sacerdote y la de la religiosa, hay un acto de valentía: elegir un camino que no promete comodidad, pero sí un tipo de libertad espiritual que solo entiende quien la vive.
Quizás es esa convicción silenciosa, esa claridad que no necesita palabras, lo que hace que su presencia imponga respeto. Nos recuerdan que, incluso en medio del ruido y las dificultades, aún existen personas dispuestas a darlo todo por una fe, por una misión y por la esperanza de un mundo un poco más luminoso.

I believe it is his faith in what he believes that accounts for that dedication, but it is something that applies to everything a person can do.
Good point of view, this is something that has always caught my attention.
@rg2-foto, I failed to pay out 0.190 HIVE and 0.020 HBD to reward 4 comments in this discussion thread.
My wallet is running low on Hive or HBD. I will try again later.
