Cemetery #91
I say that nature and time are patient and merciful because they move slowly - Affording the deceased respect and survivors time to mourn and honor their loved ones before slowly and incrementally starting again anew. . .
Oddly, where I originally found disgust for the state of this cemetery, I'm now finding hints of comfort.
In the last analysis, the individual person is responsible for living his own life and for "finding himself." If he persists in shifting his responsibility to somebody else, he fails to find out the meaning of his own existence. - Thomas Merton
