"A Mourning moment" by bob Willis

A place to go

Walking through cemeteries has always been an interest of mine. It seems the inscriptions on gravestones speak of faith, family or country. Modern technology is allowing for beautiful inscriptions and artwork that honors the life of loved ones.
Recently I noticed a marker that included a bench. It was special to have a place to sit while remembering a loved one. It is always helpful to speak words of mourning at a gravesite.
Another friend has a park bench dedicated to the memory of her brother. I can only imagine the heartfelt emotions and memories that are expressed from that bench.
It is very special to have a "place" to go and remember our loved one. Perhaps it would be helpful to create such a place. It does not need to be in a cemetery, in fact, it can even be in your yard. Design it with privacy in mind. Personalize it for your loved one and let it be a place you 'intentionally meet their memory" I believe you will find it to be very valuable to have a special place to share feelings.
If you have designed such a place to meet your memories.. . . will you share it with the rest of us? It may help lighten the load of grief for someone.
My heart's desire would be to spend time with each of you in such a place, and let you tell me about your loved one.
