In today’s modern society, where most things have a logical explanation, cemeteries still carry an almost magical, faintly supernatural aura.
Perhaps there are things you do — or don’t do — purely on instinct, as if they are something we inherited and never needed to be taught were right or wrong.
When I visited “my” cemetery the other day, I found myself thinking about the unwritten rules most of us dutifully follow in such a place, even though we know there would likely be no real consequences if we broke them.
…but why take the risk and possibly offend someone who may have all the time in the world?
