Once you understand what death is, you never stop thinking about it. We all wind up there.

Don't forget about life while you still have it.

(Your pics are priceless, Kayla. I'ma keep 'em.)

please do :)

being there really made me feel...something. i cant put my finger on it. but i think the word i'm looking for is respect and maybe even understanding.

every grave i took a pic of/by i thanked them.
i know they can't hear me. but they were people once and they still deserve some sort of respect.

You've given the lifeless more respect than you may realize.

:(

so you gonna give us some details like:

the oldest & newest grave
husbands and wives and kids
graves that mark epidemics and natural disasters and wars
ppl you knew
ppl who died terribly
ppl who died mysteriously
etc

what about different types of gravestones
what held up
what didn't
what was cool
what was really really tacky

some ppl seem to take their bad taste to the grave with them you know.... :o

some families have their entire histories marked in the graveyard

where's the details?
(last summer my 5 year old wanted to walk around every graveyard she saw becaus eshe thought her dead grandpa harry would be there. we had long talks about kids and grown ups dieing and getting old and wars, etc...and none of it was as morbid as you think)

Hehe. My late grandfather had one of the subtlest since of humors I ever knew a man to have.

He said that phrase a few times while as we went past cemeteries with not so much a smirk on his face.

I was eight years old when I realized his sarcasm and almost died laughing. (pun not intended).

And what a way to show respect...
"Here guys! Take my picture next to this grave stone!"
That drove me absolutly fuckin nuts while walking around Arlington. I took a picture of the eternal flame, and of the changing of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Solider. And it bothered the piss out of me to see people running to be in pictures with such sacred things that ment nothing to them. It bothered the piss out of me then, and now after having been to a grave that ment more to the people there than I could handle, after seeing the hurt that people feel when those sacred stones mean something to them, it just makes me sick to think of the ones that saw it as a tourist attraction. Some respect.

ok, regional thing:

notice all the virgin mary's? silly catholics....

you won't find any of those in any of the dozens of local cemetarys within 10 miles of my house (every 5-10 miles is a church, every other church has a cemetary)

Today i went to a new one a few blocks further from this one.
I'll post pics later but i want to share a sad story.

I was walking around and i came across a large bouquet. upon further inspection i saw a CD case, i picked it up and looked at it. it was a green day case. some lyrics outline. i picked up the piece of paper next to it. a poem from Tina. to her boyfriend andrew. (andrew being passed on).
Very sad.
He must've been my age...a little older or younger. it wasn't next to a grave. just lying out in the open. I cried a little bit. Maybe thats silly. But i was really sad. First off that Andrew was so young. He had many who loved him obviously. And that his gifts from his friends and family weren't even next to a grave. They were just laying around to be stepped on. I wanted to move them to a grave but i didn't know where to start. so i just apologized and walked out. i had to go home after that.

it hit me really hard.

and venus, if you are implying im being disrespectful by doing this, fuck you.

some of these graves have never had visitors and never will. i'm showing them some attention. i'm saying hi. i'm saying "people still know that you once existed"

maybe ou dont think its respectful, but i hope that 100 years after i die someone has the kindness in them to stop by and say "Hello...kayla zuest its nice to know that you once walked on this planet"
