Yesterday many people celebrated Hallowe'en (the eve of All Saints Day).

Whatever your religious belief may be, perhaps today we should celebrate those Saints and martyrs who spent their lives dedicated to, or even dying for what they believed in.

To live and die for what you believe in takes courage, so...

Happy All Saints Day!

Thankyou Gandy..

1st November is "All Saints day", for those who are not aware of it.

In belgium that involves thinking about the ppl that died and go visit their grave. Its a tradition that ppl 50+ mostly do. But around here its usually to show of their new clothes and to show ppl 'look i'm going to the graveyard!) ... while they only go once a year.

hmm
we think about peeps not here at new years eve

'should old acquantence be forgot...'


And yea - everyones heard of halowe'en - no one knows about all saints day
