life is short

Why do we have grave yards? To make life last longer than us? This image was taken from a bus in Hongkong. Traveling from Aberdeen to Wanchai. It's in Pok Fu Lam. One of many beautiful part so of Hongkong. Some apartment buildings are very close to the grave yard. You can see the tombstones from you bedroom window.

Since taking up photography I have made several trips to graveyards around LA. I don't think anyone can keep from turning a little philosophical. And when I come across someone born the same year as me but didn't live as long - yikes. Life is short.
