As we live, we nurture death. Death is the inevitable end that every human being is destined to experience. According to the well-known Japanese writer, Haruki Murakami, death isn't the opposite of life but an innate part of it. It's a truth that we cannot change. So when we go through a death of relative, buddy, family member, colleague or a loved one it creates a painful impact in our lives. The type of sorrow and pain that is too deep, neither sincerity nor kindness can cure. Nonetheless, we don't have a choice but to go through the process and learn something from it. Grieving is a natural process that allows us to contemplate and eventually be at peace enough to go on.
According to Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, a Swiss American psychiatrist who started several near death studies, there's what we call "The Five Stages of Grief", in her theory she explained that not everyone can experience every stage, nor in particular order but it's the normal reaction to loss, death or sickness.
The five stages of grieving is commonly known as the acronym DABDA. Letter D, which is the first phase, stands for denial. This phase is characterised by the temporary conscious or unconscious defence mechanism of denial. Letter A, the second stage, stands for anger. This phase is characterised by a strong feeling of rage towards oneself or to others in an effort to release tension that's brought about by the distressing experience. Letter B, the third phase, stands for bargaining. This phase is characterised by extreme feeling of hope that it is possible to negotiate or postpone the situation. Letter D, the fourth stage, stands for depression. The stage is characterised by feelings of deep sorrow, pain, detachment and fear. The last letter A, which is the fifth and final phase, stands for acceptance. This stage is characterised by gradual acceptance of the crisis and the person starts to move on.
As human beings, we have high respects for our loved-ones. This specific trait set us apart from the animal Kingdom. In connection to that, we conduct funeral to honour and give respects to the departed loved-ones. In the Lion City, funeral services Singapore provides solemn and intimate funeral ceremony that take into consideration the departed's culture, customs and traditions, religion and beliefs. As a matter of fact, funeral services in Singapore provide sensitive rites such as Taoist, Christian, Catholic and Buddhist funeral services among others.
Truly, losing a loved-one can be emotionally, physically, spiritually and mentally stressful. So preparing for the funeral rites is quite overwhelming. These days, funeral planners have been equipped to offer a descent, beautiful and peaceful funeral service. This includes doctor's certification of death, carrying of the deceased's body to the funeral home, servicing of casket (for cremation or burial), clothing for the departed also called as Shou Yee, funeral vehicle, ceremonial practices and rites, floral decoration, food services and photo remembrance.
