On mortality

Today I noticed in the local paper that My Cemetery (which is of course a common cemetery for all to visit, but which I somehow feel is mine, due to the fact that I pass through it almost daily since it's located right behind our home, and I adore the old trees and calm athmosphere - I view it more as a park than a gloomy, scary place), together with some art students, has published a web site where you can find the location of the all the important or otherwise interesting people's graves. And there's some biographic bits and pieces also included.

Well, I know that there are more important and inspiring things in life than this particular web site, surely, but this is actually something I have thought of many times when walking among the old tomb stones. That why don't I know more about all these people, who could teach me more about them. And now, here's my answer.

I've been also thinking many many times to take photos of the fascinating old grave stones - they are like works of art, some of them - beautiful craftmanship.
