Sympathy Hangover


What To Learn When Looking At Words For Sympathy

When someone you know or is related to experiences a death of a loved one, you might want to let that person know that you are thinking of him or her. Rather than select an impersonal greeting card, you may wish to send along condolences that you selected or composed specifically for that individual. As you consider the availability of sympathy quotes, you might fare well to remember some suggestions.

It might be suggested that you let your own feelings of grief guide you in this selection process. When people fail to feel anything toward the recipient or the death, they may choose impersonal sentiments or fail to acknowledge the passing at all. However, when you are in mourning, you may find it easier to choose a quote that expresses the depth of the loss better.

You might also wish to send religious sentiments that will give the recipient hope. If your friend or loved one is religious, a quote that expresses a prayer or a passage from the Bible may be appropriate. You might even look in religious texts to select a passage that is right for the occasion.

Another suggestion would be to avoid attempts at being funny. Your friend or relative may love humor any other time of the year. However, a death in the family may be ill timed to be funny or try out new humor. You might be reminded to avoid humorous expressions in your letter or card.

Similarly, mentioning how the deceased actually died could be something that turns out to be regrettable. Many individuals in mourning wish not to recall the circumstances that caused their loss. Mentioning it in your expressions of grief could be inappropriate.

These strategies could allow you to choose quotes that are suited for a funeral or sending condolences. As you consider what expressions to convey, you might remember some basic tips. These criteria may help you avoid offending someone.
