All Souls/ All Saints

I am often remembering events of the past. Tonight I am recalling All Saints Day and All Souls Day in Poland. November first and second are the days that candles are lit on graves all over Poland. The first year we were there- in Poznan, Poland, 1979, we went to a large cemetery where a light snow covered the graves and the candles reflected off of the snow. It was a quiet, serious but not somber scene. Very peaceful and thought provoking.
