“Give all your worries to Him

because He cares for you.”

1 Peter 5:7

 

Friendship improves happiness

and abates misery,

By the doubling of our joy and

the dividing of our grief.

- Marcus Tullius Cicero

 

There is sacredness in tears.

They are not the mark of weakness,

But of power.

They speak more eloquently than

Ten thousand tongues.

They are the messengers of

Overwhelming grief,

Of deep contrition,

And unspeakable love.

- Washington Irving

 

The reality is that you will grieve forever.

You will not “get over” the loss of a loved

one;

You will learn to live with it.

You will heal and you will rebuild yourself

Around the loss you have suffered.

You will be whole again but you will never

be the same.

Nor should you be the same nor would you

want to.

In three words I can sum up everything

I’ve learned about life …

It goes on.

You don’t become what you want,

You become what you believe.

- Oprah Winfrey

 

We act as though comfort and luxury

were the chief requirements of life,

when all that we need to make us 

really happy is something to be

enthusiastic about.

- Charles Kingsley 

 

We must find time to stop and

thank the people who

Make a difference in our lives.

- John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Just After Death, What Then?

 

This life will end some future day,

Another life will then begin;

Are you prepared for that event,

Just after death, … What then?

Just after death, … O! Answer me,

Where will you reside eternally?

When time on earth shall cease to be,

Just after death, … What then?

- E.M. Bartlett
