I do not grieve death nor attend funerals. I think it is a barbaric ritual. I do set time aside and reflect on the deceased persons life and I'm happy I had the privilege of knowing the person. If we believe in God, then there is nothing to mourn. When we mourn its usually for ourselves. We can't see the person anymore, we can't visit with them anymore, and we are going to miss them.

Nobody should grieve death. The persons essence has moved on. They only grieve for their own loss.

Death can be a very difficult thing. It is very different for every person. Nobody can say I know how you feel because they aren't you. The only person that can is God. Just remember that it's not God that causes death. That comes from the devil. It's easy to say well why did God let this happen? First off, God is not the cause of evil, but the cure. We do not know his divine plan and will not untill we come to know him in the final day. So what you can do is to pray unceasingly for your departed loved one and for yourself. Ask God to grant your loved one entrance into his kingdom and into his grace. Then ask God for the wisdom and strength to push on and to follow his will so that you may one day be reunited with your loved one in heaven.

If the person who died was born again, there's no need to mourn. They are in heaven. A place I look forward to.
I don't anyone grieving over me when my time comes.

I lost a very dear friend to breast cancer a few years ago. We got together to spread her ashes in the Texas Hill Country. We put on Stevie Nicks and toasted to a remarkable lady and friend with champagne. It was a great day.
I miss her everyday but I have 34 years of many wonderful memories of her too.

I reflect back on the memories I had with them, keeping specially in mind the good ones. I also pray for them, alot.
unfortunetly if that person was very close to you it is terribly hard, and there will be many unsound nights.

I lose more and more fear towards my own death through understanding of death. It is a part of life, one that is unavoidable. It is a sad part but only if one's perspective is based from fear
