All Saint's Day

Part of the culture here in the Philippines is that of respect for loved ones who have passed away. As early as October 30th people troop to the cemeteries where they spend time with their loved ones.

    I sometimes visit my father's grave site, I know he's not "there" but its meaningful to me. In fact, I think I may go this weekend.
