ACTING WISELY
One of the distinguishing characteristics of the mature mind is that it takes into account the ramifications and repercussions of an act before undertaking it. Spontaneity may be welcomed in some things, but impulsive action that causes disharmony usually comes to no good. It has been said that no one lives in a vacuum, and we must take this fact into account when contemplating our conduct. As Joseph Hall once noted: “Fools measure actions, after they are done, by the event, wise men beforehand, by the rules of reason and right. The former look to the end, to judge of the act. Let me look to the act, and leave the end to God.”
When we are unsettled by loss, it’s best to have support as we make decisions and figure out what to do. Strong feeling can make decision-making difficult - that’s where we can help. That doesn’t mean we have to like it, but those who seek a meaningful life often embrace this truth to better savor the time they have, rather than trying to prevent the losses that affect us all. At the MOSER FUNERAL HOME, 233 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton, you’ll find that we are good listeners, because we realize how much one experiences when going through a loss. Call us at 540-347-3431. "The integrity of men is measured by their conduct. ”
