I love the Dia de los Muertos celebrations. I want a graduation party when I go. The Irish have wakes, which holds a similar concept to celebrating the "graduate" with a party. I understand people feeling sorrow, and a certain amount is expected, but when that is the sole focus, it seems self-centered to me. Just because they've left their body, doesn't mean they're not still around!
yes! día de muertos is just to remember the love of the people that left us and how death will come for everyone so fuck it 😮💨 yeah, sorrow is understandable, but i wouldn’t want my loved ones to feel pure pain when i leave. we live in memories, so it’s better to just remember others with love and honor
