而當死亡來臨時，我們呼出最後一口氣，不再吸氣，本來所擁有的一切彷彿全都沒了，這過程像是從一變回零，1-0。我們相信一個人的離開並不只是零的概念，他雖然是個句點「。」，或像是無「0」，但我們更傾向把它比喻成圓「O」。
一圓相信死亡也是生命的一部分。生命的過程就像在畫一個圓，有些人的圓很大，花很長時間來畫，有些人的圓比較小，也許很快就畫完了，無論是大或小圓，凡走過，必留下痕跡，每個圓都有其價值。
生命禮儀的工作就是在服務處於1-0的階段，讓所有在意和愛這位逝者的人能夠聚集在這個圓裡面，好好地和他/她告別。
喪禮/告別式是每個人生命裡的最後一個儀式，像是人生的畢業典禮。一圓把喪禮當成生命的一部分來做，裡面有個性、有故事、有情感和有記憶。我們希望來到這裡的人，可以像翻開一本畢業冊那樣，去回憶和思念這位離開的人，並且感恩此人曾經在自己的生命出現過。
一圓期許自己能夠為每位有緣人辦一場圓滿生命的告別，讓他/她在這趟單程旅途上，安心，沒有遺憾地離開。
Why is it called Yi Yuan?
Yi Yuan is actually a process.
When a person is born into this world, he or she has nothing; slowly then, relationships, emotions, goals, substance and other things came along. The course of events from nothing to something is as such the concept of changing from zero to one.
And when death comes knocking, when we breathe our last breath and all breathing stops; everything we possess would return from one back to zero, all gone. Yi Yuan believes that the departure of a person is not a concept of zeroes, though it may look like a Chinese full stop (。) or zero (0), we prefer to describe it as a circle (O).
Yi Yuan believes that death is part of life. A life cycle is like drawing a circle, some people may have larger circles which takes a longer time to draw; and some people may have a relatively smaller circle, where the drawing finishes sooner. Whether the circle is big or small, it will surely leave footsteps wherever it goes, therefore we believe every circle has its own value.
The work of a funeral home is to provide services when the concept of one returns to zero, it is to gather the loved ones of the deceased to bring them inside his or her circle, and to bid final goodbye.
A funeral or farewell is the last ceremony in life’s journey, like a graduation ceremony for life itself. At Yi Yuan Life Care, we value funerals because we see it as a part of life, there are personalities, stories, emotions and memories in every person. Like a graduation certificate, we hope that everyone that attends the ceremony would remember and miss the deceased, and to be thankful that this person came into your life.
At Yi Yuan Life Care, we hope to create the final farewell in life for every special person, so that he or she will go on this last journey in peace and with no regrets.
