It's very inspiring to see the many different offerings and appreciations every has showcased to represent these individual's passions and favorite memories that help celebrate their loved one's life. The stories of their upbringings is truly inspiring to see their path of life and how much they are still loved and are celebrated. It's interesting to see how people celebrate to keep their memories alive to never forget their history. Ofelia Esparza's Altar was very nice to see that there were beautiful offerings as well as colors that pop and show vibrance. Ofrendas allow people to express their culture as well their life story. The altars are amazing to emphasize the beauty of someone's life and dedications to show that they are still remembered and are appreciated by those who were inspired by them. This is their story and life to show to many people that even after death, their stories are still alive. It's interesting to witness cultural perspectives and appreciate the beauty to acknowledge the many different backgrounds and stories from various people. Seeing these ofrendas have inspired me to appreciate everyone and everything, there's a story behind everything. Documenting and showcasing an ofrenda is another way to show history that needs to be shown to be a reminder of what's happened.
