I found a petal staying at the tip of the hair.

Maybe...is it waiting to be blown by the next gentle wind to see more scenery ?

ฉันพบกลีบดอกอยู่ที่ปลายผม

บางที...มันอาจจะรอให้ลมพัดอ่อนๆ ครั้งต่อไปเพื่อชมทัศนียภาพมากกว่านี้ ?

Today me and my family were going to “ Rumah Abu “ ( a place where people can put the ashes of their family members who have been cremated in some jars and then store them here ). Once in a year, at Ceng Beng / Ching Ming, people visit their deceased family members here and pray for them. Sometimes people do the pray at their homes though, especially when the deceased family members have been dead for long. We don’t actually visit here every year too. The pics show the place, the temporary altars, also my family do the pray. Praying closed with burning some papers for our ancestors. The papers symbolize money, means we send money to our ancestors. Not just money, because sometimes the papers are in the shape of things like house, car, clothing, etc. when we burn them, means we send those things to our ancestors. The last pic shows the jars of my grandparents ashes and the one jar at the back is my great grandma.

So it's Ching ming period and it's basically a time where Chinese people go to the graves of their ancestors and pray to them. And I have this one fear. When it's my generation's turn to pray, I'm scared I might pray to the wrong grave. Imagine this. A random ass person just starts praying to this ghost and then the ghosts neighbor comes in and says my fam hasn't visited me at all this year I'm so sad and then the ghost neighbor sees the random person and is like 'oh'
