Hi dears, During my walk along the cemetery I have made an experience I cannot get out of my mind... I came to a place I have never been before. Those graves are decorated differently to the usual ones, so colourful and serene. I got closer and what I saw really striked me! Those are all graves for babies... OMG... it pulls your heartstring to read the inscriptions. Some of the babies were only one month or a few weeks old when they had to pass away and some of them haven't even made one day as you can see in the image. What a tragedy! Just wanted to share a few more images of this sad place here in the Forum. You can read my thoughts on my posting in the Gallery... [ Tragedy](http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=1082688&Start=1&Sectionid=8&filter_genre_id=0&WhatsNew=Yes) May God bless you all! Monika

It's strange this place doesn't look that sad. On the contrary it has a feel of serenity with all the colourful decoration and toys. I'm a bit down emotionally since I have been at this sad place. Just had to share this experience with you ... probably my way to work it out. Sorry!

It is as if all the energy of their unspent lives somehow imbuded this place with a vitality not usually seen in a cemetery. Sad, yet accepting somehow. Thanks for sharing this Moni.
