A Story About The Burying Ground
This evening (1st November 2013), me and my friends
went to burying ground. This is one of many famous places. Because finally, we
all will die . And when the time is arriving, we go to there. Burying place
that we visit today also becomes famous place. This is an example of many
burying place others.

We went in there by bicycle. Through in a big way and in the same places we cross that's. Today, in the Catholic Church Calender, is The Fest of all Saints. Whereas tomorrow is The Feast of all Souls Day. The second is a commemoration of dead. These memories are celebs in Roman Catholic Church. Maybe also in Anglican Church and Orthodox Church.Then, what is the relation between this Festas and our visit this evening?
In Italy, usually, at this time, many people visit the burying. Like today, many people come here. We entered in this group. I remember, in Indonesia, these traditions don't popular. I see in a few places like that here.
And, this is a first time for me visiting the burying in Italy. There were many burying. Generally, in group. Group of family, of factory, and others groups. Moreover, there are many forms of burying. House forms, palace forms, and so on. This is more interesting. I enjoyed seeing all this.
I reflect that I will go there at one moment. My body, our body, puts on underground, whereas our name put at either place. Not like in my village, the name be put above the burying. This is certain depend on culture. My culture is different from the Italian, the Parma's culture. When we walk around this place, I always look and read the list of the names. I know, the corpus, the body of this list be put in underground. We didn't see the body. We just see the lists.
At partly this time, I remember at my brother, my grandfather, my grandmother, my aunt, and my friends who had dead at many years ago. I pray for them, Lord, may they lived with you in heaven, give them your forgiveness. Thanks.
