    Happy bladed, Halloween. It turned out really nice, yeah, I believe in all faiths, it's more than just one thing to believe in. I think it is beautiful. I just went to a funeral today of a cousin. I didn't really know too well. It was my dad's cousin and it made me think of the older generation now we're starting to lose some of them, and yet we are so connected and yet we are not connecting with our loved ones.

      @@xploradora8099my relatives in Poland still do. The tradition is similar to the day of the dead. Graves are decorated with candles and flowers and sometimes with food. A group prayer is organized with the priest at the gravesite and the priest blesses it with holy water. Also people follow taboos such as doing any housework or planning trips.
