A tour of the city center (Eng/Esp)

avatar

English version

I went out again to run some errands in the city center, so I activated the @actifit step counter before starting my journey. Today the city looks different; December has arrived, and the Christmas spirit is present in every store and public place.

I went shopping downtown and came across a Santa Claus dancing happily in front of a store in the scorching sun. It was a bit funny because he started his work with great enthusiasm, but as the hours passed, the suffocating heat sapped his energy, which is understandable with all that padding, clothing, and makeup.

But it's a tradition that still continues and also a good strategy to attract the attention of customers and, above all, children. To tell the truth, Christmas and New Year's Eve no longer fill me with excitement as they used to. At this stage in my life, I focus on other aspects far removed from commercial interests and advertising that encourages us to spend money, linking this to the acquisition of happiness.

I won't deny that the food this season is delicious, and eating hallacas and pan de jamón is also a tradition, but I've come to believe that Christmas is for children, with their excitement about the gifts that Baby Jesus will bring, and for young people who are always looking for celebrations.

On my walk, I came across a political event being organized on Bermúdez Avenue, where the state government had closed the avenue to set up a stage and a large sound system that was playing dance music for passersby.

I did my shopping as usual, thinking that the streets would be full of people asking about prices or buying clothes, but that was not the case. I finished my errands and headed home via Bolívar Square, another place that is decorated with lots of Christmas decorations.

Nuevamente salí a realizar unas diligencias al centro de la ciudad, así que activé el contador de pasos de @actifit antes de iniciar mi recorrido. Hoy la ciudad luce distinta, llegó diciembre y ese espíritu navideño se hace presente en cada tienda comercial y lugares públicos.

Fui a realizar unas compras al centro y me encontré a un Santa Claus bailando muy alegre frente de un local comercial en medio de un sol abrasador, resultaba un tanto gracioso porque inició su trabajo con mucho ímpetu, pero luego con las horas el calor sofocante mermó sus energías, y no es para menos con todo ese relleno, ropa y maquillaje.

Pero es una tradición que aún se mantiene y también una buena estrategia para llamar la atención de clientes y, sobre todo, de los niños. A decir verdad, ya la Navidad y el fin de año no me llenan de ilusión como antes, en esta etapa de mi vida me enfoco en otros aspectos muy alejados de los intereses comerciales, de una publicidad que nos invita a gastar relacionando ese hecho con adquirir felicidad.

No voy a negar que la comida de esta temporada es deliciosa, la ingesta de hallacas y pan de jamón también suele ser costumbre, sin embargo me he convencido que la Navidad es para los niños, con la ilusión de los regalos que traerá el Niño Jesús, y los jóvenes que permanecen en la búsqueda de celebraciones.

Justamente en mi caminata me encontré con una, un acto político que se organizaba en la Avenida Bermúdez, allí la Gobernación del estado cerró la avenida para instalar una tarima y un gran sonido que para entonces ofrecía música bailable a los transeúntes.

Realicé mis compras en total normalidad, pensé que las calles estarían repletas de personas indagando precios o comprando ropa, pero no fue así. Hice mi recorrido y emprendí mi regreso a casa por la plaza Bolívar, otro lugar que luce mucho ornamento navideño.
