When Halloween Should Be Scary, Not Just Merry
Hundreds of years ago, people come and go
And out of many occasions where people go
Life was not as plenty before as it is today.
Life then may be hard, but people don't forget to smile everyday.
One day when some people thought of praying and kneeling,
"What is the purpose of bowing or bending?"
Each week, one person from every family goes out and asks everybody around
Every person asked either nodded or said, "I don't know why? I'm just new here and playing around."
Nation as a whole continued playing, kneeling and praying, bowing and bending.
In time, people from every nation thought of something else.
Time and again people started to scare each other to prove that "boring life" is not everything else.
In the modern times, if you don't scare people, you don't care much.
So, scaring people is a sign of love...
if love or life is valued and respected.
How "Halloween" was coined? Think again... you will know the reason why!
To scare and to be scared can be therapeutic for cardiac exercise.
However, it is never intended to hurt, harm or demoralize people. It is a human behavior or habit for some, but was not designed in life
to promote enmity or instigate evil. It should be not be practised
to ignite chaos and never to build tension or heart attack.
