There is a lot of beauty in that. For example, if you were to take a walk through a cemetery and observe all that’s around, you’d probably notice some very unique ways in which people choose to honor their loved ones. But of course, you can also do that without leaving your home because there’s a subreddit just for this purpose. Scroll down to see the best pictures posted there! More info: Reddit This subreddit, CemeteryP***, is exactly the kind of place where people who appreciate this calmness and the sights it brings meet. The group has over 143,000 members, yet there are only two rules: asking members to include context with their submissions and upload their sightings in static images. Everything else, just like in the rest of the Safe For Work P*** Network on Reddit, flows smoothly without the need for any strict guidance, so if you go there looking for drama, you’re probably in the wrong place. To discuss this aforementioned subject, Bored Panda reached out to Hanan Parvez, a psychologist with a deep passion for better understanding the human mind and sharing that knowledge with the rest of us. Hanan further compared losing a loved one to losing a part of yourself, which is as impactful at the genetic level as it is at the identity level. “It’s like losing a body part. You know you can’t get it back, but the pain is extreme.” Still, people do get over it. It is a natural part of life, and it’s safe to say that everyone is aware of this, at least to some extent. “However, the grieving process is essential because you want to acknowledge the relationship you had with the deceased person,” added the psychologist, explaining that this process is more about being grateful for the person who was in your life rather than wishing they hadn’t passed away. But at the same time, the decision to have something unique might have been the wish of the deceased themselves, as a lot of people tend to be very particular about these details. “So, if you see a unique shade of grey on a gravestone, it could just be that the person buried there liked that color. It’s about how the deceased wants others to see them after death,” said Hanan, joking that the human need for looking good extends beyond our lives. And yet, in many cases, it seems that people find it easier to let go of someone who has passed away than get over a breakup. “It’s because once a person dies, there’s no hope of getting them back. In contrast, one could always get back with their ex,” explained Hanan, summarizing that most people eventually find ways to recover from a loss without too much difficulty.
