What is Dia De Los Muertos?

Pure Writing
Holidays are celebrated every year very differently according to what culture you are from or what part of the world you are from. One of my favorite holidays is called Diaz de Los Muertos and this holiday is basically called Halloween in the U.S. I love Dia de Los Muertos, because it is celebrated very differently in Mexico, compared to Halloween in the U.S. In this article I will explain what Dia de Los Muertos is and how the Mexicans in Mexico celebrate it, including myself. And, one more thing before I begin I would like to thank all my fans of my writing work globally, because without you I would not write. I love writing about my Mexican culture, but I like to refer to my people including myself as our native term which is Mexicans. But, by me using the word Mexican I do not intend or want to offend none of my fans out there I'm just using that word as a way to explain my experiences with my Mexican culture which I am very proud of.

Dia de Los Muertos is a holiday that is celebrated with honor and pride in Mexico. Basically Dia de Los Muertos is a celebration of the dead. Dia de Los Muertos or Day of The Dead is a special day to remember family members or friends that have passed away in the past. On Dia de Los Muertos many families talk about their loved ones, and the memories their loved ones left behind. Every year when Dia de Los Muertos comes up my family usually remembers and talks about my hard working aunt. We talk about the funny things she did and how she died, and we get the sense of her being there on that day.

Dia de Los Muertos is a day that you offer your past away family members food by religious candles in your house, many families leave the food all day by the candles so the past away soul will feast for their special day. Many families in Mexico as well as my family go visit the graves at the cemetery and put flowers on their grave to let the past away loved ones that you care and think of them.

If you have any questions about this holiday please feel free to email me at purewriting@hotmail.com and thanks for reading my writing works of my real life true experiences.
