Mexican Tradition
More than 500 years ago. When the Spanish conquistadors landed in what is now Mexico. They encountered natives, practicing a ritual that seemed to mock the are they do they know as the others they look at that. This is how Mexican people have always celebrated that. Aurora Mexico people visit the cemetery where the loved ones are buried. They decorate grave sites with marital flowers and cantos. They bring toys for their children and bottles of tequila to adults. They sit on pitted blankets next to grave sites. I need their favorite food of their loved ones. It's kinda great before most of the Americans. But for us, Mexicans, it's something that we have seen since we were a little children.
This tradition has been held in Mexico for more than 3000 years. And it's also been celebrated here in the United States. Sugar is called made with the names of the dead. Person of the forehead are eaten by a relative friend. The Aztecs and other mesoamerican civilizations kept schools as trophies and displayed them during the ritual. This calls were used to symbolize death and revert. The way of the day is not about death. It's about life. It's the way we Mexican celebrate those that have passed away. So next time you see a quote made of sugar, do not be afraid of it. It was not made to scare. This is a symbol of love. It was made to show a loved ones. They wait back home. Thank you. Love you. Darling.
