worst month ever

This month is the worst month i have ever come across in my life... Starting of this month my maternal granny expired... After that on second week of the month , my friend's grandpa got expired... In third week my dad's periyama expired... Also heard one of another friend's grandpa expired.... What a deathly month it is????
But people who have expired were in their 80's and 90's , suddenly everybody i know getting expired is something unbearable... I was chatting with my dad about this yesterday, he said its their age factor we can't do anything... Also added up , that my grandma and his periyama have really lived a long life and in future life span of the individuals will be very less...
Here goes the superstitious stuffs or something my family follow strictly is theetu when somebody in our family expires... For my granny it was only 3 days for us since she was my maternal relation... Coming my dad's periyama we have it for 10 days along with that no festivals should be celebrated for one year by us... I may agree for mourning their death for 3 or 10 days is ok, but this one year non celebration is really bugging me big time...
For last 3 yrs someone or else in my dad's family have been dying whom even my dad doesn't know and we are forced non celebrate it... Last 3 years i was not questioning much about these stuffs to my parents, but thus time asked why are following stuffs like this??? My mom answered there is no explanation why we are doing like this , but what we are is good for our family.... Is any non celebration is good for the family and family members...??
Coming to this theetu stuff its supposed to kept for 10 days if any relations in my dad side is expired... Then here comes a question its to be kept for 1st and 2nd link of relations right??? In my dad side they follow this for 4th and 5th link relations... This really sucks big time... I remember last time we kept this for 4th link relation whom even my dad don't know but since my periyapa ordered us to do so...
My question is if somebody expires the mourning for them for few minutes and praying for their soul to rest in peace is more than enough, but why people are following like these theetu stuffs and non celebrations...???? Will this thing get stopped with me parents or even my brother and i have to follow this???

p.s: This time no Diwali... Also actually nobody in a mood to celebrate it too...
I'm done with my blogger block at last :)

R.I.P grandma

1st oct morning , 5.15 am my grandma joined the god leaving me... So im not in a mood to write about my navarathri celebration and also didn't took pictures of golu... Spent 2 weeks in my native so peacefully in the rememberance of my grandma... Sometimes crying, sometimes praising about her... She was 91yrs , I used to tell her you will live more than 100yrs patti... I am very much attached to my granny, she used tell me all moral stories,cooking,how to put kolam,singing etc etc.... I miss u patti... Be with me as my god guide me throughout my life...

p.s: Hereafter i will post regularly... A lot of stuffs to be shared...
