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.
