October 2012
I do not know why I love visiting churches. This was at Saint Augustine Metropolitan Cathedral, and my first time to go around, stop by, and appreciate Cagayan de Oro on foot. More than religion, and faith is the history that is etched on it’s walls, and it’s age that is shown on the patterns on it’s tiles. So I romanticize the old, with the present, but only because these old structures are but the only witnesses of those years that is left standing today. Maybe it is that, that, somehow they are but windows of the lives of the people that had gone before us, and the sacrifices that they may have done for those living today.
