So often in the emotional chaos of grief the two can easily become confused. Once identified, it's easier to know how to deal with the feelings.

This is such a wonderful resource to turn...<br />Ferree,<br /><br />This is such a wonderful resource to turn too. I really love your suggestions and alternatives!<br /><br /> I Pray that anyone who is holding on to any regrets regarding the obituary will be able to use this resource to help them work through it. <br /><br />I also love your use of the word "regret" instead of "guilt". <br /><br />I know some people will feel guilty about this. Guilt results in something that you knew was wrong at the time. Regret is something that comes later when you thought you could have done something better. <br /><br />I'm not sure if that helps, but sometimes knowing the difference and knowing that you have done nothing to feel guilty about may help you focus more on working through these feelings of regret. <br /><br /><br />I agree with you, it is never to late to create a memorial or tribute. It's never to late for anything that's important to you.<br /><br />~Cathy Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
