As we exist, we nurture death. Death is the apparent end that every human being is destined to experience. According to the world-famous Japanese novelist, Haruki Murakami, death isn't the opposite of life but an innate part of it. It's a truth that we can't change. So when we go through a death of an acquiantance, friend, family member, colleague or a loved-one it creates a painful impact in our lives. The type of pain and sorrow that is too deep, neither kindness nor genuineness can cure. Nevertheless, we don't have a choice but to go through the course and realise something from it. Bereavement is a process that allows us to ponder and eventually be at peace enough to go on.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, a Swiss American psychiatrist who established several near death studies, there's what we call "The Five Stages of Grief", in her hypothesis she explained that not everyone can experience all phases, nor in particular order but it's the normal reaction to loss, death or sickness.
The five stages of grieving is generally identified as the acronym DABDA. Letter D, which is the first stage, stands for denial. This phase is characterised by the temporary unconscious and conscious defence mechanism of denial. Letter A, the second phase, stands for anger. This phase is characterised by a deep emotion of rage towards oneself or to others in attempt to release tension that is brought about by the distressing incident. Letter B, the third stage, stands for bargaining. This stage is characterised by extreme feeling of hope that it's possible to postpone or negotiate the situation. Letter D, the fourth phase, stands for depression. The stage is characterised by feelings of mourning, pain, aloofness and fear. The last letter A, which is the fifth and final stage, stands for acceptance. This stage is characterised by gradual acceptance of the loss and the person begins to move on.
As human beings, we have high respects for our loved-ones. This specific trait set us apart from animals. In connection to that, we conduct funeral to honour and provide respects to the departed loved ones. In the Lion City, funeral services Singapore provides intimate and solemn funeral ceremony that take into consideration the departed's culture, customs and tradition, beliefs and traditions. As a matter of fact, funeral services in Singapore offer sensitive ceremonies like Taoist, Christian, Catholic and Buddhist funeral rites services among others.
Unquestionably, losing a loved-one is one of the most distressing events a person can experience. It's emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually overwhelming not to mention that while going through this overwhelming process you are expected to organise for the departed's funeral ceremonies.
