3 weeks away... and this was the worst case.



äitisuomennos: kasvit hengissä, vaikka tasan 3 viikkoa ilman säännöllistä kastelua! ihme!

"More fiber in your diet may help reduce risk of dying"

The day of the dead

los muertos...

los muertos se levanten y participen a los actividades de los días pasados.

los muertos...

los muertos...

äitisuomennos: kuolleiden juhla

Brains

being headless and brainless will protect you from zombies 
- i strongly recommend! 

Tough stuff

At tragic heights, 
a failure pure, 
surrender to nothing, 
but the truth, 
fall now - endlessly, 
into the ashes, 
and dare to KNOW.

no idea where i got this one either. :P
nevertheless it's beautiful. :)


äitisuomennos: !!! :)

Candles

...bring comfort, soft light and mysterious or romantic atmosphere, are poetic plus are used in commemorating somebody/thing and to me personally signal home.

october poems...

Stop.

when i decided to start my blog, a friend of mine told me (probably trying to encourage me) that it's real easy: if one has no ideas one can just use photos... seems like i believed her too well.

since i'm bored now i decided to turn a new page and write more than ever!
(ok, i don't have ideas for that long but until i
- die?

Museo Nacional de la Muerte en Aguascalientes

so where do all these skeleton figures come from???


from indigenous art and believes ofcourse!!!






from christian tradition as well...

(the second picture is an old miniature glass bottle which one had to look at through magnifying glass. - i suppose you've already guessed which picture is not part of the christian tradition... ;)






and finally we meet these fine ladies...

la catrina - coqueta - is a very typical and beloved figure dating all the way back until 1913. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catrina)

i suppose now you all understand the beloved skeletons of mexico - the humour and the respect of the dead... to me it seems like a very beautiful tradition: teaching the children not to be afraid... building día de los muertos altars for the died loved ones...
