Michelangelo was spot on when she stated it delightfully: “Don’t wait until it’s too late to tell someone how much you love them and how much you care about them”.
Whichever way you look at it the principle remains the same: That we learn to show our love and appreciation to people close to us when they can best enjoy it not when it is too late! Why not take a moment to appreciate and express gratitude to that individual who continually gives his or her all to you and others? The big question is: how do these benefit the departed?įor those of us in the corporate space, do you realize how almost everybody find their voices to pay glowing well wishes to colleagues at their sends-off ceremonies? Why do we organize elaborate and ostentatious ceremonies with the intention to honor the memories of the departing or departed when we could have celebrated them when they were with us?Ĭlearly, there is more to what I want to express here beyond funerals and send-off parties. To what end? And what is the point in writing all those beautiful tributes only to be read posthumously at the funeral of our beloved family and friends? Perhaps, the least said of how expensive these funerals are, the better. The expensive wreathes laid on tombstones the extravagant funerals. Why is more pronounced when they pass on, or move on?Ĭome to think of it. Just look around, mentally, and you may confirm this observation: Why is it becoming too apparent that the natural human nature to show love and appreciation is becoming more and more estranged? Instead, the tendency to show love and extend good will wishes to one another, usually comes up when it is too late. Take a moment to pause and reflect on your own life.
