Lima


Lima.

Numero a saan unay a dakkel ngem saan met unay a bassit. Masansan, daytoy ti bilang a kaus-ustuanna laeng. No ad-adu ngem lima, agbalin a makasuya. No met nababbaba, amanganta nakurang ti anagna.

Kas iti panangibislin kadagiti kapanpanunutan, no nasursurok ngem lima ti ilimogmo, agtungpal a makaulaw. No met nababbaba ngem lima, agtungpal a kawaw.

Iti daytoy nga isyu, intay rugyan a pagraramanan dagiti naduma-duma a putarmi a listaan dagiti “lima” – dagiti listaan a mabalin a pagsarmingan.

Lima a rumbeng nga aramidem no adda buhaw iti asidegmo:

1. Mangsarakka ti natibker a pagkaptam tapno saannaka a maipurwak ti alipugpogna.

2. Umadayoka kadagiti nalaka a marpuog wenno matumba. Amanganta matupakanka no mawagwag dagitoy gapu iti kinapangasna.

3. Saanmo nga ikankano ni buhaw. Ngamin no madlawna nga adda “audience”, ikarkarona ti  panagpug-awna.
4. Saanmo a dengdenggen dagiti puyotna. Amanganta sumgar dagita dutdotmo ket mapasubsubam isuna. Sika laeng ti agbalin a dakes.
5. No narigat a talaga nga isnaben ti kinapang-awna, pumanawka laengen. Saanen a tao dayta.  
Nalugananen ti dakes nga espiritu ti ottot ni demonyo.

Lima a pagsasao seknan kadagiti uleg:

1. Mangawis ti talek sakbay a pumalek.

2. Isem ti putan ti katademan nga immoko ni manglimlimo.

3. No para kenkuana, alisto a makalusot. Ngem no para iti sabali, adu’t parikut.

4. Sharing a sharing iti sango seknan ti ebanghelio, managtagibassit met no nakalikod ti tao.

5. Amin a balasubas, nasam-it nga umarasaas.

Ania’t makunayo, kailian? Agannad kadagiti buhaw ken uleg. Agkaiwara manen dagitoy a dorgi, nangnangruna ta umadanin ti panangpipili. Ala kastan, ad-adunto pay a listaan ti intay pagsasangnguan iti sumaruno nga isyu.

MARCOS, Ilocos Norte—Taking pride of this town ’s favorite Ilo cano dish, locally known as pinakbet, a mix of indigenous vegetables steamed in fish sauce, residents here ushered the opening of the third Pinakbet festival. “Pinakbet” came from the contracted Ilokano word ‘pinakebbet ’ which means “ shrunk ” or “shriveled.” As a way of thanksgiving, the Pinakbet festival is a repository of the town ’ s “ani” [harvest] festival being celebrated every month of March but this was later moved to December to accommodate more balikbayans wanting to join the festivity. Residents in this agricultural town derived most of their income from the harvest of high value crops, including rice, tobacco and corn as staple crops.
