HEARTFELT

GRIEF

Grief is a matter of the heart - not the head. Regardless of how much we know and how quick we are to know it, we cannot truly embrace grief until we allow ourselves to feel it. For, although our minds may first try to block grief in a fit of denial, the impact of our losses eventually makes its way past any intellectual constructions that we may put in its path. This is all to the good, because to allow ourselves to grieve is to enable ourselves to accept loss. Consider the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, who wrote, "Sorrow makes us all children again - destroys all differences of intellect. The wisest know nothing." ,

Sorrow comes to us all, since we all face loss. But we all grieve differently and pass through its phases at our own pace and in our own way. At the MOSER FUNERAL HOME, we believe that prearrangements are an act of love towards one's family because they make explicit the wishes of the family member and ease the burden on those who survive. You can call us at 3473431 (233 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton) 24 hours a day.

"The groundwork of life is sorrow. But that once established, one can start to build. And until that is established, one can build nothing: no life of any sort."

- D.H. Lawrence
