Basic Details To Know When Choosing Verses For Funeral Cards
Loss of loved ones is a difficult time in any person's life. No matter if the death is expected or not, the pain is enormous for most individuals. Most people want to offer their condolences as well as a shoulder to cry on, but are unsure of the right words to say. It does not matter if the deceased was elderly or very ill, or young and suffered an accident, the bottom line is the same, people are in pain and we want to comfort them. The wealth of available verses for funeral cards can make this easier.
It is generally not helpful to tell a mourning loved one that their friend or relative is in a better place now. We must keep in mind that not all have the same belief system. Not all people believe death is "a better place". It is better to steer clear of this sort of statement. The most important thing to do is let these individuals know that you understand their pain and share their sorrow.
Cards for religious people usually rely on scriptures that support the belief of "life after death" in some form or another. For these individuals a great deal is available that can be quoted in order to lend comfort. The end of sinfulness, and end to death, and restoration of lost loved ones offer great hope and comfort to religious individuals. For people of faith, death does not mean they will never see this person again.
For people who are not religious, there are many famous quotes available that are not affiliated with any faith. Epicurus, Socrates, and Francis Bacon are just a few who offer thought and words of comfort for those dealing with death. Even Theodor Geisel(Dr. Seuss) has thoughts on the matter.
Special words for firemen, masons, nurses, doctors, for specific heritage, and much more can be personalized according to the needs of those mourning. Making it personal can be very good for those in pain. They will find comfort in the appreciation of their lost loved one's life work or passion.
Keep in mind the idea is to bring peace and comfort to mourners. There may not be any way to completely alleviate a person's pain, but there is certainly the opportunity to lend comfort and understanding. Remember, even during our most difficult times in this big world, we are never truly alone.
