Milan Cemetery

8/3/12  Carola asked why I would go to the cemetery.  Has she been? 
This place was like a museum.  I was so touched by seeing the emotion of death expressed in stone. I thought about how we as mortals have to confront what happens to us when life leaves our fragile bodies. How interesting to see how people deal with the fear, sadness, longing, grief.  When they visit these monuments, what do they think about? How do they feel? We humans tend to forget the big plan - we get busy with life. The world spins around us, until death stops it and makes us confront it.

I tried to capture all these thoughts in the pictures I took.
