The bones of our relatives rest in graves peacefully and quietly until the Archangel\u2019s trumpet wakes them up on the Judgment Day. Why should anyone be afraid of them? Instead of being scared, you should visit them as often as possible. If you come to a cemetery often, you won\u2019t harbor evil thoughts. Remember death, judgment, and the Heavenly Kingdom, and you\u2019ll never sin again.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The old man paused and then added, \u201cOf course, there is a horrible place in our village.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWhere is it?\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIt\u2019s the bar.

I can\u2019t even count all people who went broke or died because of alcohol. Be always afraid of the bar, Vanya, and run away from it, for it is a place cursed by God. The cemetery, on the contrary, is a holy place, the Lord\u2019s farmland.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"right\">Prepared by The Catalog of Good Deeds<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cVanya, go down the road and find the sheep,\u201d an old man told his grandson. \u00a0 The road was next to a cemetery.
