graveyard

A grave matter

Share


I am fascinated with graveyards, and I love walking through them. They have a sense of quite and calmness. They are places where you can pause and remember that whatever your worries, they are probably not that important when put into perspective.

So today when I drove past the Muizenberg Cemetery on a misty morning, I had to stop for a few minutes to walk through the graveyard and look at the graves. Interesting that even though once you are going there is no coming back, there is still clearly a distinction between the expensive and inexpensive graves.

Day 10: Graveyard, originally uploaded by Craig Strachan.

A graveyard between Stellenbosch and Franshoek. I was particularly struck by all the flowers on the graves, every single grave had a flower on it. Very thoughtful.
