I agree and I actually love walking through cemeteries and reading the inscribed writings on the gravestones. There is a certain part of history that I agree, is part of what was discovered on these stones.
I also agree that there is a certain part of me that says, ashes to ashes, dust to dust and we should not use this space for emotional reasons.
So torn.
I do love knowing my mother is buried in a place of her own and I can lay flowers down as a gesture of remembrance, but, in my heart, I will never forget her.
A very interesting write and I will have to admit, I would miss gravesites for all the history of my own family I have collected.
Looks like we think alike, I feel the same. I would like to have a place for my loved ones (and I have) where to bring flowers from time to time. But I understand the need to do this as well.
I think it's going to be controversial at first but with time it might gain more followers. Time will tell anyway.
