Photo_Interpretation of the Virgin Mary by Britto.
So this is how it went…
Once upon a time Mary got married to Joseph, an older man the saint of work. Her family was happy with such a successful male, and so was the man. Obviously, a virgin, what else could he gain?
So off they went to their new home at Bethlehem "The House of Meat", but his ballpoint wouldn’t tint. Obviously, too old of a man.
So days went by, over excessive smoking and drinking wine. Frustrated Mary after many attempts she went out one rainy night while the old man slept tight.
She went out, she danced her exasperation out to the tune of 'Escape (The Piña Colada song)' her favorite song… a cocktail or two, maybe 10, until Gabriel appeared, handed here a drink and said:
“If you like getting caught in the rain, drink this water”
And it soon turned red, with the flavor of grapes.
and so the night went… they kept drinking water and dancing, and sweating, and graping, and staring, until the lights went off and she awaked.
There she was to the sound of the cows. She scowled outside to see the Sun shining down… at Gabriel’s naked body, at her grace.
She ran home, turmented, stressed… what has happened, she couldn’t tell but down below, never felt the same.
After some time passed she couldn’t hide it anymore. Her belly had grown, avoiding her favorite wine in company was though, worst not smoking no more.
So she said..
“Husband, Im pregnant. Sometime ago an Angel came from the heavens, his name was Gabriel and said”
_”You shall bear the son of God”
At the sound of this name the old man hinted madness, his body wrenched, his face was about to break while thinking to him self..
“Gabriel is the Milkman, we all know his lineup”
But his dignity would plummet. His pride, his manhood, his career, and his very own world.
So then he straighten his face and said out loud to him self.
“You shall birth the son of God, my Virgin Mary. Juniper shall be named ”
… and so, this is how it went.
When Juniper was born… Jesus!!! Wait! you didn’t know???? Yeah, he couldn't get away even with the naming of this prodigy.
His original name was Juniper, such a beautiful name. But Mary couldn’t agree, she would say and explain.
“Juniper is not a native name, nor global at all”
So they opted for Jesus, a then Hebrew name and now a Mexican name.
The end.
