Losing a loved one is a natural part of life. Still, like anyone who has experienced the passing of a loved one, I, too, wallowed in sadness when my parents headed to the great beyond.

Though I’m not the type who cries easily, I experienced that sudden outburst of tears during the early part of grieving.

Upon her death, the traditional rituals took place: no sweeping of the floor, no taking a bath, no wearing of bright colors since it denotes happiness "kuno"; no combing of the hair, blah…blah….

The list went on.
