Journal #19


Halloween means nothing to my culture. But in Taiwan, we have one month to respect the ghost during July to August. And we call that "the door of ghost is opened" in this period. In this month, all of ghost come to human's world and some temples are colsed. Therefore, we will put some food and alcohol on the table. It means we respect them and make them feel full. Furthermore, in this period, parents always warn their children don't go to beach to swim or go to trip. Because the ghost woud like to catch some people. I think in every country people have different ways to express their feeling to ghost. Despite believing or not, we should respect different culture.
