REMEMBERING THE DEAD


There was a report in the news tonight of people who can't seem to find the location of their dead relatives in the cemetery. It's been years since they last visited the cemetery and now they find the tomb of strangers.

I pity them. Not the living but those who passed away. If the living relatives visited them often then they won't have a hard time looking for their loved one's tombs.

But again maybe we are all doing ourselves a favor. Moving on and putting the past behind.

I guess the important thing is we remember our loved ones inside our hearts. We remember them everyday. We remember them not on their death but on how they lived. How they influenced and touched our lives.

Me? I'll be happy if I'll be able to influence even just a single person into making him/her a better human being.
