She invites you to check out her site for international tutors  @ http://susxtutors.co  ** Blog owner note: I had to edit this article somewhat due to grammar corrections, as such some of the sentences are a bit different from the original submission.

As you can imagine it was fraught with emotion and lacking any sense of purpose or future. It was a somber experience and as such, consumed my emotions. As I was wandering aimlessly around the cemetery, I was taken with the numerous grave sites with headstones embellished with words, which in most cases had been kept to twenty six or less, in order to fit on the stone.
