Their not "dying", meaning its not the end. You can still see your family grow and develop along the years, but it is one step closer to death when people forget you. To stay in the land of the dead, your family must remember you by putting a picture of you on an offrenda, which can be found in most Mexican homes. ]]> 2018-11-06 16:07:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mgarcia138/ah9ux0dzdpyc/wish/301059399 https://padlet.com/mgarcia138/ah9ux0dzdpyc/wish/301059482 For Mexicans, death is perceived as a honorable reincarnation.

Every year on the Day Of the Dead the Mexican People put out pictures of their dead relatives so they can cross the ¨magic bridge¨ to take the gifts their family's leave for them.

The Sad part about the death of Mexicans is when they get forgotten by their family and their are permanently gone from the Spirit world and the real world.]]> 2018-11-06 16:08:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mgarcia138/ah9ux0dzdpyc/wish/301060052 https://padlet.com/mgarcia138/ah9ux0dzdpyc/wish/301060203 Death is a whole new life.
