Everyone is getting out their Halloween decorations and what not, right? Ghosts and blood and skeletons. And bloody ghosts and skeletons. Don't ask me why people celebrate death. My answer's just as good as yours. People celebrate death for all sorts of reasons. The real question is why don't some people put up Halloween decorations. Personally, I don't because I think it's gory and ugly. It's scary, and pointless. I don't believe in ghosts or live skeletons, so why should I put them up for display.
Lots of kids love Halloween, and you know why. Candy. And maybe dressing up. But mostly candy.
So when adults love Halloween, I wonder why. Most adults don't dress up, and not many go trick-or-treating. I think they love Halloween just because they get to display bloody creatures. It sounds strange to say it out loud, but it's the truth.
I'm not saying you shouldn't celebrate Halloween, but don't let it become a priority to celebrate something you don't even believe in. You could be giving someone the wrong idea about what you believe and don't believe in.
Celebrate the happy things: candy, cute kids in even cuter costumes (just kidding), meeting new people, and going to parties
Happy Halloween!
