Dia de los Muertos - Article Summary

Dia de los muertos stared of in Mexico and migrated everywhere else. It is believed that this is the time where those who have passed away are allowed to return to earth to visit with their families and friends. This time, on November 1 and 2, people honor those who have died. On this day they usually prepare special foods, and make or give candy. It’s a way of paying respect to those who have left us. Someone once said that “Death is apparent in everyday life. It is in art and even in children's toys. It is not respected as it is in other cultures.” I have lost so many close members; therefore to me there isn’t anything more precious to have a day all about them.[♥]
