As my attention wandered, I couldn't help but ponder the scene i just saw. The boy's impulsive decision to whisk away his new girlfriend to a lonely place, despite her protests, takes them to an unexpected destination: a graveyard where his mother rests in peace. Amidst the somber surroundings, the sight of his mother's epitaph catches our attention, adorned not with degrees or titles, but with the service she once belonged to. It's a poignant moment that prompts me to wonder why people choose to inscribe such details on tombstones.
After all, in death, identity fades away. What purpose does it serve to etch these labels onto stone markers?
