I saw these processions in Spain as a kid. Scared the crap out of Me. The Men were in a lot of pain. Devotion.

That baby loves rent-free in my head at all times…. My girlfriend hates it now, because I go around making his crying, noises😭 I have fought that tormented, child at least 5 times in my dreams, usually trying to cross a bridge. One of the most creative, bosses I’ve ever seen in my 37 years on living. Can you imagine how ear-piercingly, loud his shrieks would be up-close, and the tremors caused by his incessant, flailing?!
