This is just an observation. When November 1 comes, most of people would think more of their loved, relatives and friends who passed away. Various activities and preparations are being planned on how to commemorate them, but November 1 is devoted for ALL SAINTS DAY, and not for ALL SOULS DAY. Anyway, I guess since saints are also dead holy people, we may included them also. I just wish we also think something for our saints. For sure, they are happy when we remember them and especially ask for their intercession to pray and intercede for us who are still alive. "O holy men and women, pray for all of us here on earth and those who have gone ahead of us especially those who are in purgatory and for those unremembered dead people. Intercede for us to our Lord Jesus, amen."
