This is the vigil of All Saint's Day, commonly known as Halloween (all hallow's eve). It is also known as Samhain, the Celtic Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur. This is the night when the veil between worlds is thinnest and when one make peace with what has happened in the last year.
I'm pretty sure I'm not ready for that yet. I realise how much I need it. The dead need burying, lest they walk amongst us for another year. The echoes of the past need to be put to rest, else they shall haunt us. I so wish to hold on to what was, what I wish would be....but it IS dead and I DO need to bury it. Begone then, foul spectre, and plague me no further.
