Finding ways to honour and acknowledge Qing Ming "...is respectful, inclusive, and meaningful for all family members. It focuses on shared values, the importance of family heritage, and respect for ancestors, central themes that transcend religious boundaries." I wonder how many transcendent practices globally could be celebrated rather than diminished.
I did enjoy the trip with my cousins to visit the graves of my ancestors. It has been quite a long while that my family stopped going after our conversion. The bonding was good among those who were there, as we acknowledged the role that our ancestors played. Of course our reminiscing and info gathering made it more interesting. As a Christian, I could still share in the cost of the upkeep of the graves. My presence and participation brought much joy to my cousins.
