   @Illuminatus @Bookworm33333 @Remittancegirl People should stroll through old cemeteries, which I do often. Graveyards are generally pleasant places to walk, and tombstones and monuments can be art or kitsch. Momento morae either way, which I find salutary. The point being old #cemeteries are full of the graves of children who died very young, mostly of diseases #vaccination would have prevented. #childgraves
