Catherine was Her Name, / myLot

Pamplona, Spain

August 6, 2020 3:03am CST

Although I never touched fireworks when I was small. There was one I never touched It made my skin crawl All I knew was that I knew It was to do with a lady from before. From centuries ago now. For her beliefs they treated her so cruel. Again there was just that awful feeling a memory of that poor lady. Firework I speak of is called St. Catherine´s wheel. I have never had anything in the sense of that memory happen to me again. It just so happened that being very small I could see that it was not a happy one to light and made me cry. When you are small you don´t know why you know you just know it and that its true. Its always been a kind of deja vu feeling for me without knowing why until almost right up to now. Much prefer to light a candle in her name even if its in my mind.

@lovinangelsinstead21 I can see that you would prefer to light a candle instead.

Right now yes and for all that went on yesterday out there much love and light to them. I respect that St. Catherine lady but I have no idea why I was just a very small girl that did not go to school just then so I did not know how to read or write.

Fireworks are safe if you follow the rules with them.

I was not afraid but the firework itself gave me a memory of something from before its hard to explain to anyone. I used to like all the fireworks except that one.

I never liked fireworks. It creates so much noise and disturbes animals and birds. There are better ways to celebrate some special event. We have voices to sing, we have music to dance.

I like them when they are let off in a place that is safe and not many houses are near but not the jumping jacks that scare people and animals those are really harmful and distressing.

@lovinangelsinstead21 you are right. The safety should be priority, not just fun
