*_Strange things we do in Africa in the name of "It's Our Culture"_*
*1. We care more for the dead than we do for the living!*
*2. We spend more to bury a person than we do to save their life.*
*3. We will not travel to go see a sick relative but to bury him /her*
*4. People will rarely respect you while alive but will want to "pay their last respects" to your casket.*
*5. A person may NEVER receive roses in their entire life but they will get lots dumped on their graveyard!*
*6. We will spend a night at a neighbour's funeral and it will be our first time to see the inside of their house!*
*7. No one gives a damn to know your village until you die and they will all fill car after car to "escort" your corpse*
*8. We will take the dead to the temple knowing fully well they had nothing to do with worship*while alive.*
*9. We might not have granite tops in our kitchens but use the granite in the graveyard!*
*10. An entire village might not have a single house with cement floors but the only place with cement will be a graveyard!*
*I propose we have "Cultural Reforms". We have a culture of "hypocrisy"
... a culture that is "Pro-death" and NOT "Pro-life!"
We need to value life BEFORE death.*
This is deception!
Share until it reaches the custodians of our culture!
