Is Cremation the Way to Go

Everyone doesn't seem to want to think about how they want to be viewed at the end of their life. Many people have many unsettling thoughts about worms crawling on them, to being afraid of being placed under ground.

These are all fears that normal everyday people think about. All people are still imperfect, that's why we think of this time of our lives as a scary one. I want to share with you the reasons I think Cremation is a great way to put an end to the last chapter of a dear one's life.

An urn that has the remains it in will not scare children as bad as them seeing a stiff lifeless body in a casket. I think this is more frightening to little children, than even the adults.

Cremation is not only a gentler way of showing the loved ones in your life, and easier way of saying goodbye. It is also more economical as well. My mother purchased one that was made of marble. The other kind I've heard doesn't hold together as well under ground. This way could save lots of money, while leaving the family with a more comfortable feeling during visitation.

Funerals are never easy, but the way of cremation opened my eyes fully to the comforting ways that this type of service can bring to a person's family and friends.

I've always been close minded about the thought of being cremated. It maybe because I didn't want to face the thought about death. My father was a dear man, who would do anything for anybody. His remains were indeed cremated. My mother had beautiful roses by this beautiful marble urn, along with a Bible, a beautiful picture that I had given him about entering heaven. This method gave me peace about him being departed, much more than if I had to witness him in a casket all frail, and left with unsettling emotions due to viewing him in a casket.

Life throws may punches in our lifetime. Why not think about making this punch a lot less painful for everybody that will be viewing the departed loved one, at the funeral home, or church service.
