Today I met up with my friend @ismaelgranados and we went to explore the city. We hadn't seen each other for a few days and we took the opportunity to catch up with each other and explore the city cemetery for a while.
My friend had never entered the cemetery in Táriba. I confess that I was a little surprised, but now that I think about it I don't remember having visited the cemetery in the city where he lives, so he owes me the tour.
This is a very gloomy place indeed. Even the trees look sad and gray. Ismael told me that it is amazing how nature adapts to the environment and the reflection of that was the petrified and leafless trees. The green is absent.
The tombs with their marble sculptures, blackened by the inclemency of the weather. Some with dried flowers and without tombstones. We walk among the tombs until we reach the end of the holy field where we find the cemetery of the poor. It seems that the social cases are labeling us even after death.
We continued walking and there was (paradoxically) the cemetery of coffins inside the cemetery. Stacked at the back of the cemetery, as if no one cared, were hundreds of coffins rusted and destroyed by the time that passes without mercy.
I stopped for a moment to take pictures and commented to Ismael that the coffin and funeral processions are one of the most expensive things that exist and for what? To go back to being simple tin cans and dirty pieces of cloth. This was very depressing. I learned that after several years, the graves in the cemetery of the poor, which bury the urns directly in the ground, are emptied and the bones are taken to the common grave.
We talked a little about what we preferred, whether to be buried in a cemetery or to be cremated. I told him that being buried in a grave would be like tying the family to a commitment to be visiting the grave and bringing flowers. The best, for me, without a doubt, is cremation and having the ashes grow a tree.
It is not a very pleasant subject, but death is part of life and in this changing world it seems to me that cemeteries will remain in history, although many people defend the idea of being buried underground. So the passage of time will tell.
Explorando el cementerio de la ciudad de Táriba
El día de hoy me encontré con mi amigo @ismaelgranados y nos fuimos a explorar un poco la ciudad. Hace días que no nos veíamos y aprovechamos para ponernos al día y curiosear un rato en el cementerio de la ciudad.
Mi amigo nunca había entrado al cementerio de Táriba. Confieso que me sorprendió un poco, pero ahora que lo pienso no recuerdo haber visitado el cementerio de la ciudad donde él vive, así que me debe el recorrido.
Este es un lugar muy tétrico realmente. Hasta los árboles se ven tristes y grises. Ismael me comentó que es increíble como la naturaleza se adapta al entorno y el reflejo de eso eran los árboles petrificados y sin hojas. El verde está ausente.
Las tumbas con sus esculturas de mármol, ennegrecidas por la inclemencia del tiempo. Algunas con flores secas y sin lápidas. Caminamos entre tumbas hasta llegar al final del campo santo donde nos encontramos con el cementerio de los pobres. Parece que las cases sociales están etiquetándonos incluso después de la muerte.
Seguimos caminado y estaba (paradójicamente) el cementerio de féretros dentro del cementerio. Apilados en el fondo del campo santo, como si a nadie le importara, estaba cientos de ataúdes oxidados y destruidos por el tiempo que pasa sin clemencia.
Me detuve un momento para hacer las fotografías y le comenté a Ismael que el ataúd y los cortejos funerarios son una de las cosas más costosas que existen y ¿para qué? Para volver a ser unas simples latas y trozos sucios de tela. Esto fue muy deprimente. Supe que después de varios años, las tumbas del cementerio de los pobres, que entierran directamente las urnas en la tierra, son vaciadas y la osamenta es llevada al restero común.
Hablamos un poco sobre lo que preferíamos si ser enterrados en un cementerio o ser cremados. Le dije que el hecho de ser enterrado en una tumba sería como atar a la familia a un compromiso de estar visitando la tumba y llevando flores. Lo mejor, para mí, sin duda, es la cremación y que las cenizas sirvan de cultivo a un árbol.
No es un tema muy agradable, pero la muerte es parte de la vida y en este mundo cambiante me parece que los cementerios quedaran en la historia, aunque muchas personas defienden la idea de ser sepultados bajo tierra. Así que el paso del tiempo lo dirá.

The truth is that I am not one of those who agree to bury a person in a cemetery, that is to say that I think the same as you, in fact I do not even like to visit these places.
It is better to have the person in the memory and that their dust travels through the most beautiful place where they would have liked to arrive....
I admire you for having the strength to take those pictures. Even so, this is a good reflection since you are showing us the conditions in which the cemetery is located, and the people with less resources are even worse off, this reaffirms that it is better not to do it, not to bury people. Although the opinions of others are respected.
Hugs...

Great pictures my friend, it was nice to know this cemetery and to watch the tomb of your grandmother. it was a good talk we had. Well i can give you a tour at the cemetery near of my house. it is pretty interesting.
Hola amiga, que interesante post, muy buenas fotos, pero todos los cementerios no son tan tétricos, vivo muy cerca de la Necrópolis de Colón y visitarla es casi un lujo, tiene obras de arte de un valor artístico e histórico incalculable.

Que impresión me dio la foto de los cajones rotos jaja. Si bien no me dan miedo los cementerios, si me dan impresión. Estan buenas las imagenes que tomaste, además el día gris lo hace aún más meláncolico. Lindo lugar para dar un paseo jaja.
Jajajaja, sí eso pensé, teníamos días sin vernos y terminamos en el cementerio "paseando"🤭.
A mi también me dan impresión, aunque te confieso que después de analizar la situación creí que no iba a poder dormir esa noche.
Gracias por pasar a visitar mi publicación, es mi forma de mostrar mi ciudad. Un abrazo infinito 😘💜

Hace un tiempo seguía a un muchacho que se dedicaba a visitar cementerios recorrió el general del sur en Caracas y fue a tumbas bastante emblemáticas de algunos presidentes y algunas de animas que en algunas religiones son utilizadas para pedir milagros.
Eso de los féretros abandonados casi siempre es culpa de la misma delincuencia que los sacan a ver si tienen algo de valor que robar o vender sus huesos para magia negra.
Que bueno que te animaste a visitar ese lugar
The only time I find myself walking down a cementry is always when someone dies, and it has been a long time, and I don't wish to. But this is something I would rarely do even though I have a cementary around. I am not curious to that extent 😅

Hahahaha crazy. The people were looking at us in amazement and we were taking pictures. It was crazy. Thanks for visiting my publication and for the support 😊👍🏼
Qué exploración tan interesante, nunca entré cuando estuve allá.
Es triste y escalofriante ver el aspecto que van dejando los años en los camposantos, y el aire de muerte que reflejan. 😱😢
