"The Day of the Dead (Spanish: el Día de Muertos or el Día de los Muertos)^[2][3] is a holiday traditionally celebrated on November 1 and 2, though other days, such as October 31 or November 6, may be included depending on the locality."

Here is the first paragraph the National Geographic website:

Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a celebration of life and death. While the holiday originated in Mexico, it is celebrated all over Latin America with colorful calaveras (skulls) and calacas (skeletons). Learn how the Day of the Dead started and the traditions that make it unique.

Today as I write this on Wednesday, November 1, 2023.  

I have been here in this Death Venue for over half a year -- much too long.   It is time for me to go, so that my loved ones can celebrate this Mexican holiday as well, and I will be freed from the non-life I am experiencing  (I can hardly say living) today.
