There are times I wonder what my paternal grandparents are like. I've never met them; even my mom didn't get a chance to meet them. My dad was too young to remember when they passed away exactly. To us, 拜山is just a Chinese ritual to undergo when we had the time to visit the columbarium.It is especially so, since my family is Christian so we don't believe that my paternal grandparents would come haunt us if we didn't burn them offerings or such. Honestly, I came as a form of respect or maybe for self-comfort that I will also be filial to them if I ever got the chance?
Nevertheless, I thought it was a waste of food since the offerings are left there after the visit... at least spare some for your living granddaughter who is starving like crazy (╥_╥)
