All Saints Day

When in US people make ready costumes for Halloween night,meanwhile, in Poland people make preparation for All Saints Day which takes place on the first of November. A few days before this holiday, people start preparations. First, they clean the graves of their relatives, next they buy candle sticks and the most popular flowers for this occasion -chrysanthemums to decorate the places where dead person were burred. On that holiday, many people gator near different cemeteries and later they go with family members to stand by the graves of relative dead person. They light candles and pray. In the midday, a priest starts a mess to celebrate the souls of dead. Then people think about relatives. In this moment everyone is sad. In the evening, families have a meeting to talk about beloved relatives and to remember old times, when dead person lived.
I think that date of the first November is very sad day, because we can't understand why they died. On the other hand, this day is happy because we remind good time spend with dead relatives and friends and we realize that they are still alive in our hearts.
