On a somewhat more cheerful note than yesterday, not all visits to cemeteries are so somber. In the midst of my thoughts about death yesterday, I happened upon a headstone with a pumpkin next to it. In addition to missing people who have died, we also have good memories of the times with them which carry us through our own difficult days. Perhaps this pumpkin is to remind us the happy memories we carry with us.
