Whenever I attended a funeral, I am always at a loss on what to say to the grieving family. In fact, I just usually said ‘hello’ and then stood there in a looooonnnggggg painful awkward silence until the grieving person move away. I know of some elderly people who would peruse the obituary pages of newspapers just to take note which one of their friends have passed on. Of course, there are some who would be reading with glee that they have outlived yet another friend. I am not much of a stickler for all the mumbo-jumbo of most Chinese traditions so I am mostly clueless on most Chinese traditions and customs. When it comes to a funeral, if it is being done the traditional Taoism way, I am even more clueless. It is like a threat to me. That death will come and wrench my TH from me without so much as an ‘excuse me’. The thought is scary and it also angers me. |
