September in Pictures

My hedgehog, Spika.

Spika and DOS are really curious about each other.

DOS does this a lot, at this exact corner. I always thought that's a dog thing.

DOS plays with the scratch post a lot. She does everything except for scratching it.

Why do we celebrate deaths?

A friend of mine passed away 3 weeks ago. Yesterday was my birthday.

This combination suddenly made me wonder why people celebrate deaths. In East Asia, death anniversaries of your ancestors are big deal to the entire family. At some point just sort of became a ritual. I feel like it's not the dead that was being celebrated or remembered; it's just an excuse for an occasion to get together.
