Dealing With Death And Loss

By Kenneth Braddy


As we live, we cultivate death. Death is the inevitable end that each individual is destined to go through. According to the well-known Japanese writer, Haruki Murakami, death isn't the opposite of life but an innate part of it. It is a truth that we can't change. So when we go through a death of relative, friend, family member, colleague or a cherished one it creates a hurting bearing in our lives. The sort of pain and sorrow that is too deep, neither kindness nor substance can cure. Nonetheless, we don't have a choice but to undergo the course and realise something from it. Grieving is a natural process that lets us to contemplate and ultimately be at peace enough to go on.

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, a Swiss American psychiatric specialist who established more than a few near death studies, there's what we call "The Five Stages of Grief", in her theory she explained that not everyone can experience all stages, nor in particular order but it is the normal reaction to loss, disease or death.

The 5 stages of bereavement is usually recognised as the acronym DABDA. Letter D, that is the first stage, stands for denial. This phase is characterised by the brief conscious and unconscious defence mechanism of denial. Letter A, the second phase, stands for anger. This period is characterised by a strong feeling of rage towards oneself or to other people in attempt to release tension that is brought about by the stressful incident. Letter B, the third stage, stands for bargaining. This phase is characterised by intense feeling of hope that it's possible to postpone or negotiate the state. Letter D, the fourth stage, stands for depression. The stage is characterised by emotions of sorrow, pain, coldness and fear. The last letter A, that is the fifth and last phase, stands for acceptance. This stage is characterised by gradual acceptance of the situation and the person starts to move on.

As people, we have high regards our cherished-ones, in correlation to that, we carry out a funeral home Singapore rite to remember the life of the individual who departed. Funeral home in Singapore supplies a complete coverage and concern regarding the customs, beliefs, practices and religious conviction of the deceased. In fact, funeral home Singapore like Mount Vernon Singapore regards the religion of dead persons by offering culture sensitive ceremonies like Buddhist, Taoist, Christian or Catholic funeral rites services.

Without question, losing a cherished one is probably the most distressing events a person can experience. It's emotionally, physically, spiritually and psychologically overwhelming not to mention that whilst going through this overwhelming course you're expected to prepare for the departed funeral ceremonies.
