I've actually posted about burning fake money before.
The money might be fake.
But the fire is real, as is the reality of lostness.
Theme: Fake | See More Fake Stuff
At first, I didn't think I had a photo of anything fake. But, thanks to Jimmie and her photo hunt picture, I thought of this. So, thanks for the prompting, Jimmie.
I of course, had to go back and read your March entry, burning money! It does feel like some days I am burning my money lol..My photo is up, please come and visit

Aww.. My family runs a joss-stick shop, and they also sell paper-mache - things that people burn for the deceased..

An old Chinese tradition, yes, the fire is real, as real as losing the departed loved one.
have a great weekend!
