Coping With A Loved One’s Demise
To remember a departed loved one’s life through funeral services is one move that permits you to face your own sorrow. Almost all cultures have a way of creating tribute to the dead. It offers those who are grieving a source of solace, support and comfort.
Grieving is a person’s natural reaction to loss. It is the suffering we undergo when we lose something that or someone who we treasure as dearly as our own lives.
Some examples of scenarios that are reason for sorrow are as follows:
– a breakup with someone you have are in a relationship with – you lost your job – loss of the opportunity to pursue a dream – a loved one is diagnosed with a serious disease – the medical tests came in and your physician tells you that you are suffering from a serious illness – you and your spouse are going through a divorce – you had a fight with your best friend – a pet passes away – a loved one dies
All these examples can lead us to grieve. However, the most intense pain that we experience is when someone we love – such as a spouse, a child, or a mother or father- dies. Nothing can fill the void that suddenly opens up in our life when our loved ones are gone.
We may have shared a large part of our lives with our loved ones who passed away. Thus, life is now never the same as it were when our loved ones were still with us. We mourn our loss. Nonetheless, it is in grieving that we develop the path to our own healing of the anguish that we felt with our loved one’s death.
There are no set instructions on how we must grieve. Yet we must opt for healthy ways to channel grief, which can encourage the healing that we need after experiencing loss.
Grieving does not mean caterwauling or weeping your heart out each time you remember your loss. Crying is not the only indicator that we are mourning the loss of a loved one. A person may seem quiet, as if stoic; yet deep down, they also feel the loss.
Grieving does not have a time limit, such as the “prescribed” time of just 1 year. The duration of the grieving process will be different for an individual compared with another. No one should be forced and “get over” the grief that they are experiencing. Time mends all hurts and wounds.
Death is a sensitive time. Give your deceased loved ones the funeral they deserve with a peaceful funeral service.
