A graveyard (pexels.com)

A place of peace

also, of serenity maybe

but just be wary of....

*********

Do you ever walk through a graveyard and wonder who, what, when, where and the why? Is it a place to remember those that we lost for are they really lost at all for the most part aren't they not in a better place. They or most of them of found their way home. As in the image those markers of lanterns may have led them home for, they have seen the light. For a graveyard is like a way station between two worlds or three.

    A serenity comes over while walking in graveyard. Maybe we feel grateful to be still breathing.

    Of what?! You left us hanging with so many options here :D I love to walk in graveyards, and look at the names and dates, and photos especially when there are and just wonder what kind of life they had, who they were and stuff... then I make up stories of them, and I wish I could write them down but of course I even forget my phone at home and by the time I get back I forget most of them. Could that be a 3rd world, or a 4th in afterlife.
