Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Is Illumination For Grave Marker Necessary

By Tom Tree

Having to put a loved one in a grave can be a difficult thing to do. However, you will know that you are going to have to answer many questions before you reach this stage. One of those that you might be have to answer is lighting for headstone necessary. This is an odd question to be asked, but one that if asked you will want to have the answer to.

One thing to consider would be if you are going to be visiting at night. If you are going to visit at night you might want to consider getting this because you will be able to see your loved ones site and be able to know that your at the right spot.

Something else that you can consider is if you have the extra money that these might cost. Some of the cost that you can find would be the initial cost, but then you are going to want to figure out the charging system and how often you are going to need to replace any batteries that these use.

Before making any purchase of these though you need to check with the cemetery that your going to be using and see what restrictions they have. Since some of the ones in your area might not even allow you to have these you could find that if you purchase without checking you could have just wasted your money.

Another thing to consider would be if you are going to want to maintain the upkeep on these for years to come. Since you might not be willing to do this and only keep them up for a year or so you will probably be questioning if it is going to pay off for you in the long run.

Having to bury a loved one is a difficult task to do. However, you are going to want to answer some questions first to see is lighting for headstone necessary or not. If you find that it is then you will want to purchase them.
