So I celebrated Halloween and yesterday I attended All Souls’ Day prayers in our community graveyard where all the graves were decorated with flowers. Family members came & prayed for departed souls. One step more to explore the culture and traditions of global world. I thank my blogger friends to let me peep into their world by sharing the pictures and telling the stories of their festivals.
Hope I am loud and clear answering that million-dollar question, “why do I blog?” To grow worldly wise, to explore, share and make friends who love me, laugh with me and support me unconditionally. Wish you all All Saints’ Day……
Enjoy the pics from a corner of India.

Thank you for stopping by.
oh wow the tomb (If I may) is so well decored 🙂
Yes, the graveyard is too big. Lots of grave and all were covered with flowers.
l can so respect that
I was surprised, I did not think you had cemeteries similar to ours. I really did not imagine anything, but I only know pictures of funeral pyres on the rivers.
We have lots of it here. In fact North East India population has too much western Christrianity influence. I wish I had started my blog while Tarun was posted in Shillong.
I have learned an incredible amount from you. I wish now I could follow up with a real visit, but I so much enjoy your posts!
That will be the best part of my blogging journey & association with you. Recieving You both at the airport ! Wow !!!
I was excited to see this post, Rashmi. My Mom was born on All Saints Day but I like All Souls Day, too. The label may be different but remembering special family members is the focus for prayers and some celebrate the way those people lived, too. ♡
Thank you so much for your support of my Mom’s return yo improved mobility and health. You are most kind and thoughtful. Hope your parents and you, husband and 2 son’s continue to be blessed with good health and happiness, Soul. ♡
Such a sweet comment and so many blessings ! O my dear friend Robin what I would do without you. Today I realize that body is not important to have a relationship. It is soul which matters and you have a beautiful one. 🙂
My reasons for blogging too! So much to learn. :0) I knew of All Saints Day,but not for India. Thank you! !!
Even I didn’t know that it is celebrated it some parts of country in such a big way.
Until I saw the event this year I was clueless about it. I had only read it in books or had seen the pictures in news. It was a peaceful experience.
