Even those who do not practice a religion often experience a sense of peace, as if that space allows for an intimate and personal connection that is difficult to find elsewhere.
an essential part of the grieving process
Psychologically, visiting a grave can help in accepting the loss. Grief is not about forgetting, but about learning to live with the absence. Returning to the resting place of a loved one allows one to face the reality of death gradually and healthily.
For some people, these visits reduce guilt, alleviate sadness, and help release repressed emotions such as crying or nostalgia.
Remember, honor, and give thanks
