TOE SORROW YET TO COME
Just as it is said that into every life some rain must fall, so too are we all sure to endure sorrow. Does this mean that we should live in fear that someday our lives will come to grief? Hardly! We should, instead, cultivate the confidence that we can meet life's hardships and incorporate the lessons learned from them into our reservoir of wisdom. As Theodore Ledyard Cuyler surmised: 'To forecast our sorrows is only to increase the suffering without increasing our strength to bear them. Many of life's noblest enterprises might never have been undertaken if all the difficulties and defects could be foreseen." We should look into the future to see our ability to handle sorrow, rather than avoid it
Kahil Gibran once pointed out that the deeper that sorrow carves a well into your being, the more joy you can contain. While this thought may not make our losses easier to bear, it is helpful to remember that loss affects us all and that great loss only comes when we have loved well. At the MOSER FUNERAL HOME our facilities are spacious and thoughtfully appointed to offer a restful environment in which to receive your loved ones. We are here 24 hours a day at 347-3431 (233 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton). We offer plots in Bright View Cemetery, just outside Warrenton, and memorials and monuments for all cemeteries.
