My blogs
| Introduction | Cemetery, catacomb, crypt, churchyard, city of dead, funerary ground, grave, graveyard, marble town, memorial park, mortuary, necropolis, city of dead, potter’s field, God’s acre, eternal home, final resting place. Even as a little girl, I have this fascination for cemeteries. I would visit a graveyard near our school, bring some flowers and place the bouquet in some random plot, utter a prayer for the soul of whoever was buried there and go home. Even though I didn’t know a single soul – no pun intended, in the said cemetery, I would still do it over and over again. Don’t get me wrong, I can’t say that I am not afraid of ghosts, the fact is I am. But for some reason, I can find peace in my day-time visits to the graveyard. Some people may find this blog a little creepy or eccentric even. But for me, there are a lot of lessons to be learned from the stories of the “departed ones”. If only the dead can speak. |
