When someone dies the first instinct a person has is to place them in a box, in the ground, under a stone that declairs to all who see it that this person lived from this time to that, that they had a name, and where loved.
The dead do not care what their tombstone says, they do not care what their box looks like, or that their body is even in a box.They do not care how their dressed, or what expression is stuck on their face till the end of time. Only the living care.
Graveyards and gaves are not ment to honor the dead but to be there for the living, reminders that there where people that lived here before them, that the people they do not see anymore did exsist, and as a silent reminder that in the end we all die.
I placed some of my old things in a box today.I labeld it and put it away in my closet. I can see the label when ever i open the door.

I wrapped up a time in my life, placed it in a box in my closet, under a little peice of paper that declairs, to all who see it, that these things are from this time to that, they had a perpose, they had a meaning, they came from people who i loved.
