visit my brother‚ it makes me sad to see graves — just the cold stones — and no flowers on them. They look lonely‚ like nobody loves them. I believe this is the worst thing in the world — that loneliness. No one to visit you and brush off the dust from your name and cover you with color. A grave without any flowers looks like the person has been forgotten. And then what was the point of even living — to be forgotten?

Indian Traditional Wedding The Indian wedding compared to the Christian wedding‚ in my opinion is much more intense and has many more rituals.
