Loss Of A Loved One Quotes

Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.

It is the will of God and Nature that these mortal bodies be laid aside, when the soul is to enter into real life; ’tis rather an embrio state, a preparation for living; a man is not completely born until he be dead: Why then should we grieve that a new child is born among the immortals?

If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them.

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of those depths.

Good-night! good-night! as we so oft have said Beneath this roof at midnight, in the days That are no more, and shall no more return. Thou hast but taken up thy lamp and gone to bed; I stay a little longer, as one stays To cover up the embers that still burn.

I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love.

What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.

I stay a little longer, as one stays, to cover up the embers that still burn.

When the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.

We shall find peace. We shall hear angels, we shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds.

When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.

The body is only a garment. How many times you have changed your clothing in this life, yet because of this you would not say that you have changed. Similarly, when you give up this bodily dress at death you do not change. You are just the same, an immortal soul, a child of God.

For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one.

The only cure for grief is action.

When he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun.

Mourning is one of the most profound human experiences that it is possible to have… The deep capacity to weep for the loss of a loved one and to continue to treasure the memory of that loss is one of our noblest human traits.
