Its the Hungry Ghost Month Again

August 13, 2007

The 7th month of the Lunar New Year is the Ghost Month and it usually falls on August my birthmonth.

 

How do I know?..well its quite obvious..today I saw oranges, bananas,cookies and incense sticks along the road.

 

A lot of people are burning paper money and I can smell incense smoke from up here on our 6th floor flat.

 

My son says that the hell gates will open to release the ghosts(that is if you believe in ghosts).

 

So I have to endure the smoke every night.

 

P.S.    Donot step on the ashes(I am tempted nga na pulutin ng mga oranges at mga saging sa daan…bawal yon).I will be haunted by ghosts daw. Ano kayang klaseng ghosts yon chinese o malay o indian ghosts. he he he
