What is St. Patrick?
The St. Patrick's
Day is celebrated annually on March 17 to commemorate the death of Saint
Patrick, It´s a national fest in Ireland where everything is green and Irish;
Christians and no Christians celebrate the feast, regularly dressing of green,
and they enjoy Irish cuisine which includes alcohol and Irish drinks, and
attending parades. Some markets selling beer dyed green for the feast.
Why St. Patrick
is celebrated ?
Irish pirates took prisoner
the young Patrick 16 and sold him as a slave. He stayed there six years in
Ireland, where he learned to speak the Celtic language. He managed to escape and
went to France to prepare for the monastic life, and became a priest.
A Christian tradition
says Patrick explained the mystery of the Holy Trinity using a three leaf
clover. since that day as usual have to wear a clover on his feast and dress in green and even dyed with this color beer
in honor of Ireland, also nicknamed the "Emerald Island."
Opinion
In my opinion this celebrate it´s
very curious because I never heard that the people dressed up of green even I
felt curiosity for the green beer, finally I think that is a amazing
celebration
