Remembering
A colleague invited me and several others to join her in this Herinnering Verlicht in Amsterdam. This is an annual event held at the Niewe Ooster where people commemorate their loved ones who have passed away.
For me it was something special to see. The event was nothing to do with the Catholic tradition of "All Soul's Day" but it was presented in such a way to show different cultures/religion commemorating the death of their loved ones. It was a mixed of performance and art.
This year, the theme was all about "Wat ik je nog wil zeggen"...or what i still wanted to stay.
I appreciate my colleague inviting me for this event and I knew she did it on purpose. It was a nice evening and I felt very much in one with my brother.
