QING MING



Qing Ming or All Souls Day is the time to pay respects to the dearly departed. Modern people is too engrossed in their respective daily responsibity to earn a living. Sad to note that we even can't set aside a moment or two just to remember our beloved ancestors.

What better time than Qing Ming to pay respect , besides enjoy moments of togetherness among relatives who took opportunity to come back from near and afar. My nephew even brought along an OSIM massage chair ( of course in paper form ) to show how filial a grandchild is.

This year Qing Ming was a bit special to me especially I found fire craker in big scale being fired in the cementary compound. It was more picnic-like affair rather than a time of rememberance. Another unique scene was that plenty of toddlers and youngsters accompanying theirs elders to join this occasion. Good sign isn't it to see this happen?
