Today I have mixed emotions about life .. .and death. The recent death of my uncle has led me to ponder the purpose of funeral cere­ monies. Feeling very confused, I decided not to have anything to Co with the usual rituclls that followed his death. I want to remember my uncle as he was alive. Why do I have to go to a funeral to pay ·my ''last respects1'' I was not close to my uncle, but I loved him and his family all the same. Visits to his home were frequent enoua:h for me to know that he was a wonderful person, and for him to know that I respected him, After his wife died, he became very ill and spent the last six months of his life in the hospital. lookina at someone die is morbid enouah without lookioa at them dead.

' On the followina day, instead of aoina to the funeral, I went to work as usual. I had convinced myself that in my heart and in my uncle' s spirit, I loved and respected him. Besides, it seemed that the only time I saw my kin folk was at funerals. Deciding to put an end to this, I vowed to visit them on occasions other than funerals. But it's not easy to change tradition. That night my mother asked me if I was going to my grandmother' s house to see my relatives.
