(1)Death, that inevitable phase of man’s existence, is a
very interesting topic for many Filipinos. (2) in fact,
Filipinos families gather wherever their dearly departed
have been laid to rest to celebrate All Soul’s day every
November 2, or even earlier than that. They themselves
go out of their way to commemorate the memories of
close family members and friends, either in the
metropolis or in far-flung provinces.
(3) more than remembering the dead, this occasion, in memory
of whoever the dearly departed loved one may be, also marks
family reunions and gatherings. (4) Every All Soul’s day, my dad
and mom bring whatever food is available for consumption,
while Ate and I set up the massive tent that we brought from
home. (5) My uncles and aunts whom we have not seen in ages
provide mats and mosquito repellant lotion, to ensure that no
insect bites would harm us. Through all the chaos and
excitement, the family anchors on memorializing our relatives
through light stories and heartfelt prayers.
THANK YOU …!
