A Soulful Journey

Weep for the mourners Not for what they lost; He is at rest. We are left in pain.   -Moed Katan 25b So the Sages of old declared.   The living must deal with the void left by those who pass on.

At moments of clarity we understand the value of life.   They are far too infrequent.   That is why it is good, every now and again to get a reminder of what is important before the opportunity is lost. “Carve not upon a stone when I am dead the praises which remorseful mourners give…. But speak them while I live.” - Edwin Arnold, poet
