The Power of Memorials
Memorialization is a powerful concept. Memorials serve both the living and the deceased on multiple levels.
First and foremost, memorials are a way for the living to remember those who have passed. They can be revisited to remember a life and what that life contributed to our lives.
On a deeper level, memorials provide the living with a focus in grief. A typical response when we lose someone close to us is to feel bereft of life without meaning. A memorial in honor of the deceased can help us bring together our thoughts and feelings, clearing our minds to make space for the future.
Spiritually, memorials help us to begin to understand our loss, and to trust God.
They provide us with comfort that our loved ones are in a better place, and that someday we will be reunited with them. However, that day is not this day. A memorial should remind us of the fact, ‘Life is for living’, and a memorial in honor of those we love can act to spur us on to a greater appreciation of life. Begin on Today!
