“Do you understand what people did in the old days when they had tricks they didn’t want to share?” Tak stated to one of the android attendants of the train. “They’d climb a moutain, discover a tree, carve a hole in it, whisper the trick into the hole as well as cover it up with mud.”
Tak is a character in 2046, a film by Wong Kar Wai. in that scene, he discovered himself wanting to share a deep trick as well as the attendant was to be his tree. It was a scene that played in my head consistently as I thoroughly walked on the damaged platform as well as heard the music that twigs as well as yearn needles made when they broke.
There are lots of trees in the area however none of them triggered that memory of the film, one of my all-time favorites. What did the task were the tombstones that mark the hilly, cold site. I was at the center of a cemetery, however this was rather different from all the others I had set foot on before. No, no tricks are buried here, however similarly fascinating. There were no crosses on gravestones, only pictures of animals that appeared like they came out of a kiddie animation show. No melancholic messages for mourning, only punny epitaphs that influence smiles as well as laughter. No human bodies six feet under, only negativities — metaphorically, of course. Baguio City just got a bit bit much more insightful.
Adorning one slope of a hill at Camp John Hay, the Cemetery of Negativism (also understood as the lost Cemetery) is part of the camp’s historical Core. recognized by the base’s commanding general John Hightower in the early 1980s, it is a symbolic site for the burying of negativities — thoughts, emotions, mindset — or, as we typically phone call them collectively today, poor vibes.
“Negativism is man’s biggest self imposed infliction, his many limiting factor, his heaviest burden,” a marker by the entrance eloquently explains. “No much more for right here is buried the world’s negativism for all time. Those who rest right here have died not in vain – however for you a stern reminder. As you leave this hill keep in mind that the rest of your life. Be much more Positive.” It sets the mood as well as handles the expectations for the visitors.

Why Dident I?
A pathway made from stone cuts with a red, yearn needle-covered ground, enabling visitors to have a better look at each of the inspiring as well as enlightening yet oddly funny gravestones. One bears the name “Kant B. Done,” stated to be born on January 2, 1904 as well as died on January 1, 1904, a day before he was expected to be born. On one more marker was “Why Dident I,” above an unknown birth date as well as words, “Lived wondering why. died for no reason.”
Amusement swallowed my heart as I made my method with the fog that loomed that rainy afternoon however it was quickly overpowered by one more — guilt. A unusual blend of delight as well as pain jolted my being upon seeing the most typical reasons I uttered in an attempt to evade tasks as well as responsibilities. as well as that’s what makes this location effectual. It links with the lucky souls that walk its grounds as well as plants a sense of positivity in them. Be Positive, ends the message on the entrance marker.
Inspiration I discover in numerous locations however not at a graveyard, at least not typically. however the Cemetery of Negativism provided me that as well as more. Travel, to me, is therapy. many of us travel to have fun, sure. however a great number of us likewise travel for other reasons — to escape, to forget, to begin anew. We go distances, take risks, dive into new experiences while bring a load. Some whisper them away to trees. Some bury them in the ground. Others just let it decrease — piece by piece — along the way. all of us hope to discover three things — fun, clarity, peace of mind. Oddly enough, I discovered all of them at the Cemetery of Negativism.
