Oooo, I like this. In reading headstones, one always wonders back in time. We are all related.

It created a different high going to abandoned graves than entering a cemetery where newly buried just being interred in peace. The abandoned cemeteries speak so much of the grandeur in the pasts. W reckoned histories great and small looking into the graves even if its not that of our direct kinsmen. It tells us direct to our soul that one of these days...our turn will come. Let's remember them in our prayers...
