mt. olivet cemetery







around 11:00pm we decided to visit the mt. olivet cemetery near our house. perfect weather for a stroll through a huge cemetery: dark, drizzly, and overcast. kind of creepy. but definitely worth the adrenaline rush. as we walked deeper and deeper into the cemetery i couldn't help but wonder if we were being watched...by something faceless and formless. something that is always hanging in the night air and around each tombstone. yes, i believe in ghosts. if everything is essentially energy and energy cannot be dissolved then it must simply change composite or form as it passes through the stages of its existence. something solid may become liquid and something liquid may become a gas, and so on. i don't believe "ghosts" are transparent human images. rather, a shapeless and faceless "feeling." and i believe this feeling is always around us. not to frighten us but to remind us that life doesn't dissolve, it just changes shape.
