This was a picture I took a little while ago during Memorial Day, while I was visiting the cemetary (Fairhaven Mortuary.)When I first stumbled upon it, I thought that the poor gravestone was being covered by mud and that somebody ought to clean it up... but then I stopped in my tracks and took a closer look.
This person wasn't just disappearing from memory, but her body was returning to Mother Nature as well. What appeared to be a frightful thought at first became a sentiment of relief, testifying of the natural order of things.
I thought that it was one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen because of the way it had impacted me that day.
